Describe the feature/enhancement

Since I have several bonus feeds from private podcasts I follow, or extra patreon-paid feeds from public podcast hosts, it would be nice to tag whole podcast/feed using the "bonus" icons, instead of per-episode.

This is read from the RSS' XML file, particularly by the <itunes:episodeType> tag. The possible values are "full" or "bonus", so to solve your problem simply, you could take the bonus feed from the podcast host, open it in a text editor, and change all the values of the aforementioned tag to the following:

<itunes:episodeType>bonus</itunes:episodeType>

Here is an example from the Huberman Lab podcast:

Other than that, I don't know how Audiobookshelf would parse the episode type.

I realize I'm late in getting back to this, but I think it's unreasonable to assume that iTunes is the only source of "bonus" content.

I dislike iTunes and haven't used it since before iPods were phones, so I would like to reassert the legitimacy of this feature request for non-iTunes feeds that may be 100% bonus content (common to several podcasts I listen to via Patreon)

It doesn't need to be an iTunes hosted podcast to use itunes tags. Those tags are widely recognized and would be utilized by every podcast app.

Since not every RSS feed has these, which seems like a consistent factor with Patreon, I requested the ability to override the whole feed as bonus.
