Download Sick Beard build 484 alpha

The developers behind Sick Beard have released build 484 of their program. Sick Beard can keep an eye on when new episodes of your favorite TV series are available and if there are better quality episodes to be found. In addition, it can bring some uniformity in the naming and it is possible to download episodes from usenet and to a lesser extent via BitTorrent. The program is controlled from a web browser and can therefore be used on any operating system. Development is still at an early stage and the program is still offered as alpha. The changelog since the previous release looks like this:
