What Is A Podcast?

A Podcast is a very simple way to have audio files from the richard syrett show automatically 'delivered' to your desktop or your MP3 Player.

This means you can now have the latest MP3 audio files automatically downloaded to your computer or your MP3 player - and all you need to do is press play on your player - at a time and place that is convenient for you.

 

Do I Need To Be Connected To The Internet To Listen ?

NO! The Podcast software will automatically go out weekly and download the audio file to your desktop or your MP3 player. You can then listen - ON DEMAND - wherever, and whenever you'd like to. If you feel like listening to the shows on the subway - feel free !

Do I Need To Have An IPOD?

NO! The folks with the IPODs started the idea of "Podcasting" as a way to get more audio files on their players - the good news is that you don't need an IPOD to download and listen to the audio files. You can use any MP3 Player - as well as downloading straight to your desktop.

 

Do I Still Need To Download Any Files From The Website?

NO! The main idea behind Podcasting is that the files will automatically appear on your desktop or in your MP3 Player. All you need to do is add the link (http://www.richardsyrett.com/SP_feed.xml) to your Podcasting software - and the files will automatically be delivered to you!
