What is Podcasting?

You can think of a podcast as being like a magazine because you subscribe to it and receive new content regularly. What sets podcasts apart is that they can be automatically downloaded to your computer and synced to your MP3 player without you lifting a finger. You don’t have to remember to check for new shows. You don’t have to download it. It's done for you.
