A **// podcast //** is usually a series of digital media files (although technically just one file could be podcast) that are distributed over the Internet using [|syndication f] [|eeds] for playback on portable media players, like an iPod, and on computers. The term podcast is a portmanteau of the name of Apple's iPod and broadcast. Another way of thinking of the meaning is that Podcast means ** P **ortable, ** O **n-** D **emand broad** CAST **. In other words, a podcast is a collection of files (usually audio but may include video) residing at a unique web feed address. People can "subscribe" to this feed by submitting the feed address to an [|aggregator], like iTunes. When new episodes become available in the podcast, they will be automatically downloaded to that user's computer and can be synced for portability to an iPod or other media player. Unlike radio or streaming content on the web, podcasts are not real-time. The material is pre-recorded, and users can check out the material at their leisure. Though podcasters' web sites may also offer direct download or streaming of their content, a podcast is distinguished from other digital media formats by its ability to be syndicated, subscribed to, and downloaded automatically, using an aggregator or feed reader capable of reading feed formats such as [|RSS] or [|Atom]. - from [|Wikipedi]

** Why podcasting? ** Podcasting is changing language-learning for millions of learners across the world. It's no longer a question of going to a bookstore and buying a book and CD. Podcasting gives you free access to expert teachers. You can download what you want, and you can learn at your own pace, where and when it suits you. We believe you learn best when you're enjoying yourself, so learn German at the gym, Greek in the garden or Welsh as you walk the dog! The Radio Lingua Network is language-learning on the move.
