Podcasting allows you to listen to certain audio events on YOUR schedule.

All you need is a simple piece of software on your computer, which in most cases is free. In fact, you may already have it. If you have iTunes installed, or a newer version of Windows Media Player, you can subscribe right now.

The program allows you to subscribe to a Podcast and download the latest audio for listening on your computer. The audio can also be transferred to any portable MP3 player (such as an iPod).
