Podcasting Help
Great... but what's a Podcast?
Podcasting is an easy new way to automatically download audio programs
to your computer. You use free software to choose programs you like; the
software checks the internet regularly and starts a download whenever
it finds something new. You can listen to the programs you download on
your computer or, better yet, you can take them with you on a portable
MP3 player (iPod or similar). That means you can listen to a selection
of programs any time and anywhere you like! Even in the subway!
Do Podcasts Cost Anything?
Although you can “subscribe” to automatically receive new programs whenever
they are available, there is no money involved. WNYC does not charge,
and has no plans to charge for our Podcasts or other On Demand audio programming.
What do I need to get started with Podcasting?
Here's what you'll need: a computer (PC or Mac), an internet connection,
and (free) podcasting software.
Why doesn’t WNYC offer podcasts of music programming?
While WNYC is permitted to broadcast music on our radio stations and in our live internet streams, copyright laws do not allow us to offer downloads of programs which feature complete pieces of music. We do offer select segments of Soundcheck, our daily music talk show, as podcasts.
