If a podcast doesn't have an <itunes:summary> tag for an episode, the <description> tag is used instead which contains HTML. This is converted to plain text for display in Radio Downloader using some simple regular expressions and HttpUtility.HtmlDecode which works fine for simple HTML but fails with complex markup e.g. containing nested conditional comments.
