Podcast - What Is It?

A podcast is an easy way to automatically download audio files to your MP3 player through your computer. Use a free application to subscribe to the appropriate RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed. The application checks the site regularly and starts a download whenever it finds something new.

How Do I Get Started?

Here's what you'll need: a computer, an Internet connection, a portable MP3 player or MP3-playback application on your computer, and some free podcasting software.

  1. Install the software on your computer (PC or Mac).
  2. Subscribe to a Podcast Feed by clicking on the orange feed button and pasting its URL into your Podcast application.
  3. The next time you synch your MP3 device, any new audio files added since your last synch will automatically be downloaded.

What Software Do I Use?

Depending on your preference, you can use iPodder, jPodder (Windows), iPodderX (MacOS X) or another Podcast application of your choosing. We recommend you subscribe to our Podcast using RSS and iPodder or Dopper, and the Podcast will show up on your iPod or MP3 player automatically.
