  1. Format

    • Podcasts are usually distributed in MP3 format for audio podcast, and FLV format for video podcast.

    Content

    • Podcasts can be about anything. Most podcasts usually cater to a certain audience (for example, news, technology); however, as anyone can create a podcast, there is no restriction on the content of podcasts.

    Distribution

    • Podcasts can be hosted locally or for free on podcast distribution sites such as iTunes.

    RSS

    • Enabling RSS (Really Simple Syndication) allows podcast listeners to download podcasts to their computers or audio devices automatically if they subscribe to the RSS feed for a particular podcast.

    Creation

    • Creating a podcast requires nothing more than a microphone and audio recording software. Podcasts can be edited or as raw as the creator of the podcast wishes.
