What is a podcast?
A podcast is simply an audio file (usually an MP3) that is available for downloading online. You can download it to your computer using special software that plays podcasts, or download it to your personal digital audio player (iPod, iriver, etc.). If you subscribe to a podcast, your computer software or your digital audio player will automatically update the podcast so you always have the most recent version.
How do I listen to a podcast?
There are two ways to listen to a podcast:
- Download the individual MP3 files to your desktop or audio player.
- Subscribe to the podcast and receive new updates automatically.
Do I need to own an iPod to listen to a podcast?
No. Any digital audio player or computer with audio-playing software can play podcasts.
