Podcasts, also known as RSS ("Really Simple Syndication") feeds, are a new method for distributing audio, video, and text files in a convenient fashion. Rather than regularly visiting a Web site to download new files, podcast software is used to schedule these visits, identify any new files that are available, and automatically download them to a computer.

The only requirements are a computer, a podcast software application, and an Internet connection. Although the term podcast is related to Apple's iPod device, an iPod (or any other digital music player) is not required to receive a podcast file.

How do I obtain podcast software?

Podcast software, also known as an RSS reader, is needed to access and hear podcasts. Many of these applications are available free of charge (such as Juice, FeedReader, or My Yahoo!). A variety of podcast software types and features are available, so select the software that best suits your needs. Trinity Online does not endorse a particular podcast software application.
