Sorry, the amount of info in the report is so little because I hit enter by 
misstake. 

The point is that if I parse a podcast with Itunes Categories like this:

import feedparser
p = 
feedparser.parse("http://www.radiospeltorsk.se/category/spelklassiker/feed/podca
st")
p['feed']['tags']

I cannot detect if the tag is a main category or a subcategory of the original 
category.

For my future reference:

iTunes supports both categories and subcategories. The hierarchy can only be 
nested one level, so it's not necessary to support an arbitrarily deep category 
hierarchy.

The `itunes:category` element:
