YouTube, Google, and Other Videos Sucked into iTunes

So, I recently found this Goolge code project called CastCluster. It's some digital form of liquid cool. It's a cross-platform java app and a bookmarklet with which you grab YouTube or Google videos (or producers) as well as any directory on your hard drive. The app. will stream the video, convert it to an ipod-able format, and give you an RSS feed which you can then dump
into iTunes (or I think any other local aggregator) and automatically suck
YT/Google/other videos onto a video iPod (which My Darling Rose now owns).

Here's the super-cool. I can feed it the directories on my MythTV box which
hold the recordings. So now MythTV shows could also get automagically
pulled onto an iPod.

Pretty fargin' cool - if it works - I haven't seen the quality of a MythTV
import yet, but YouTube to iTunes on my laptop was decent. I'll test the rest tonight.
