What is a Podcast?
A podcast is audio you can download and listen to wherever and whenever you want on your personal iPod.
Getting Podcasts on your iPod
Here are the Mac and PC ways to download our Media Talk Podcast MP3s.
Mac
On the Mac side of things, there’s iPodderX, which is basically a newsreader that reads RSS 2.0 feeds with enclosures. It takes those enclosures and automatically downloads them in the background. If the file is an audio file, it then moves it to iTunes for downloading to your iPod. With iPodderX you constantly have fresh content to listen to. iPodderX downloads any type of file, (even Torrents) so you can wake up in the morning with a fresh set of audio shows, video programs, or whatever else you’ve subscribed to.
PC
iPodder.NET is a media aggregator that automatically downloads content to your machine. All you have to do is subscribe to RSS feeds, and your machine handles the rest for you. It integrates automatically with iTunes, creating playlists and synching with your attached iPod.
The Feeds
Once you’ve installed your Podcast retriever, add some feeds to which ever application you’re going to use.
Enjoy our Media Talk podcasts! We’ll have a fresh show ready for you to download available every Friday.
Or if your podcast software supports the feed:// link click here. If neither of the above work, the podcast is available here
