Developer’s corner

  • Noted today: the Apple iTunes API is not returning the feedUrl (i.e. the RSS feed address) for requests made from raw PHP without an HTTP useragent correctly set. This appears to be new behaviour; though Apple has not communicated this change; some podcast websites are not working as a result.
  • An update to the open user-agents list now includes Deezer, Podcloud, Majelan and our own PodnewsBot. See if you can guess whether the last entry in this list is related to the first story in developer’s corner today.
