Podcasts are audio files you can listen to at your convenience. The word "podcast" is a blend of the words iPod and broadcast and is defined as a method of publishing audio files to the Internet. What sets a podcast apart from an ordinary audio file, however, is that they can be automatically downloaded to your computer and synced to your computer or iPod or burned to a CD.
