 How to capture/download Podcasts with Replay A/V?
Podcasting
is best described as "radio-on-demand." Fueled partly by general
dissatisfaction with the limited choices on the radio dial,
Podcasting has blossomed into a cornucopia of listening choices.
There's a ton of independent music, as well as a variety of
talk shows, both amateur and professional. Even the big broadcasters
are getting in on the act.
Podcasts are kind of like the audio equivalent of blogs - they are set up so that smart software can check periodically for new shows, and then download those new shows to your PC, iPod or MP3 Player for listening anytime you like.
There are a lot of choices for downloading Podcasts. In this article, we're going to show how Replay A/V, one of the most popular commercial programs, can be set up to capture Podcasts. Replay A/V is especially good for long talk shows, as it has an option to make "bookmarkable" files from MP3 downloads. If you're an iPod user, a bookmarkable file works just like an audio book -- you can listen, pause, and then return to the last place you were listening, even if you've skipped to other audio or video files.
