Ampersands in titles are encoded twice #20

When subscribing to a channel that has ampersands in the video titles (such as https://www.youtube.com/user/Filmanalyse), the podcast player shows & instead of just & in the title.

Thanks for noticing this. I suspect that string now being escaped as if it is HTML/XML is an undocumented change YouTube have made to their Data-API. But regardless, it's certainly possible to workaround that in code here.

If you run go get with the -u flag (go get -u github.com/frou/yt2pod) it should download and build it again with the fix
