Podcasts are audio files, such as radio programmes, that can be
downloaded to your computer, iPod, MP3 player or other portable
media device. Podcasts are distributed via the internet using RSS
feeds. By using Podcast software (such as Apple iTunes) you can
subscribe to a Podcast and have new episodes downloaded as soon as
they come available.
Unlike 'streaming' audio, such as Internet radio stations, where
you are listen 'live', Podcasts can be downloaded so you can listen
to the shows whenever you want.
Unlike conventional downloading, you don't have to visit lots of
different websites to get a variety of content. In your Podcast
software you can subscribe to an unlimited number of podcasts and
always have the latest episodes whenever they become
available.
The great thing about Podcasts is that you can listen to what you
want, when you want, where you want.
