I don't know that much about podcasts, but I didn't think amarok deletes a
podcast after transferrring it to the device, so I am not sure why it would
download again, unless you are manually deleting them.  Also, as to
downloading all past episodes, have you limited the number of episodes
amarok saves in the podcast configuration dialogue?
