Answer 2

Podcasting is online audio content that is delivered via an RSS feed. Many people liken podcasting to radio on demand. However, in reality, podcasting gives far more options in terms of content and programming than radio does. In addition, with Podcasting, listeners can determine the time and the place, meaning they decide what programming they want to receive and when they want to listen to it.

Listeners can retain audio archives to listen to at their leisure. While blogs have turned many bloggers into journalists, podcasting has the potential to turn podcasters into radio personalities.

Answer 3

A podcast is a show with episodes. Everyone's making them, from ordinary folks like me, to big media companies like PBS and Disney.

You can DOWNLOAD it to a player, but you don't have to.

To find a podcast, google any topic with the word "podcast" next to it. I guarantee there will be podcasts about your favorite interests, and almost always for free. . Go to their websites and play it right there. If you want to subscribe, download a free application like Juice or itunes. Then click the "subscribe" button on your podcast's website.

Or, with itunes, you can browse the itunes store for free podcasts. Whenever you subscribe, it will now start saving the episodes til you're ready.
