You can listen to audio podcasts, or watch video podcasts, via a huge variety of websites and apps. The items then can be either downloaded separately, or there are many other services which make subscribing, downloading and/or streaming each podcast very easy. Each podcast is delivered like a news stream, and when you subscribe to this podcast stream, the latest podcast media file is added to the sequence and comes packaged with its title, description, date, and any keywords. Podcasting uses an XML-based technology called Really Simple Syndication or RSS ( more information on RSS).
