To begin accessing CBC Radio podcasts you will need a computer,
internet access and a media player that supports the mp3 file format.
1. What is podcasting?
Podcasting is a process that puts audio files (or “podcasts”) online, and allows software to find and download the files to a computer or personal media player.
2. What is a podcast?
Podcasts are programs that you can download to your computer or your personal media player and listen to at your own convenience. Using podcast software, you can subscribe to available radio shows. The software will automatically check for and download new programs to either your computer, or your media player. Accessing a podcast feed is just like accessing an RSS feed 
, in that you subscribe to a feed of a podcaster. The difference between podcast feeds and RSS feeds is that you receive audio content instead of text content.
