Don't default to storing podcasts in ~

[Luke picciau]

I added some podcasts to rhythmbox and found they were being stored in my home directory and not in a directory like ~/podcasts. This quickly makes a mess of my home directory.

I found this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/62400 which has been marked as resolved a long time ago but I am still having this issue on a new install with the default settings for rhythmbox.

~/Music is the default for storing podcasts, not ~/

Do you get the issue with a new user? Seems like a local configuration issue
