What is a podcast?
Podcasts are audio files that can be transferred to your iPod or other portable audio MP3 player.
How can I use podcasts?
First, you will need to install a “podcatcher” - a podcasting client software that downloads the audio automatically to your computer. Once the podcatcher software is set up to access our podcasts, it will continually poll LISD for podcast feeds with the latest audio updates. A number of free podcatching software packages are available for download.
One of the most widely used is iTunes. You can subscribe directly with iTunes by clicking here. Other popular software includes iPodder, RSSRadio and iPodderX.
How much does it cost?
Nothing! All LISD podcasts are free of charge.
Must I have an iPod or similar MP3 player?
Absolutely not! While many podcast users do listen on their portable MP3 players, you can always enjoy podcasts straight from your PC.
What audio format does LISD.net use?
All LISD.net podcasts are available in .mp3 format, and will work with virtually any audio player software or portable MP3 player such as the Apple iPod, Creative Zen, etc.
