about

A podcast client accesses the RSS file from the subscriber's computer. Podcast clients are programs that go online to find RSS files for information that the subscriber has selected to view. Most podcast clients are available free, & lots of different ones are available to suit any unique need.

A download happens when the client downloads & views the file that is being offered at the feed's website. The client finds links to media files that are included in the RSS file, & then it downloads those files, storing them on a subscriber's computer until the user desires to see them. Podcast files can be comedy shows, music mixes, or radio shows. Subscribers are often able to download parts of regular shows & play them on a home computer.

Downloads can be applied to any kind of file. The RSS file that allows usually audio & video files to be downloaded may even be tailored to apply to any information file. Some specialists think that podcasting may be used to distribute application updates, as well as demonstration programs, & go beyond basically sharing media files. Users would have to subscribe to a feed with a podcast client. This could be a way to update users about anything.

lots of possibilities for file distribution are provided with podcast downloads. This represents a different way of using the web by allowing information to come to users, instead of having users actively go out & visit each site. Podcasting could ultimately alter how the web works. With broadband access becoming faster & more available, content will have a nice chance of being delivered directly to a consumer more basically & more quickly than ever before. This approach could mean major changes for the web & make the web even more integrated with the personal lives of its users.
