What Is a Podcast?
In essence, a podcast transmits audio content – a discussion, speech or lecture - over the Internet so anyone, anywhere can share material. Its real benefit is the ease with which it can be used.
Downloading is a simple matter because podcasts are usually MP3 audio files so they are suitable for transferring onto a computer, an iPod or any portable digital-media device that can play MP3 files.
Podcasts are usually subscription-based with regular updates that are automatically downloaded for listeners to access.
