Though podcasters' web sites may also offer direct download or streaming of their content, a podcast is distinguished from other digital media formats by its ability to be syndicated, subscribed to, and downloaded automatically when new content is added, using an aggregator or feed reader capable of reading feed formats such as RSS or Atom.
Making full use of podcasts' syndication features requires appropriate software, often referred to as a podcatching client. The feeds are usually distributed using RSS or Atom protocols to the podcatching client. The dominant podcatching client is Apple's iTunes player. However, there are alternatives, including Microsoft's Zune Marketplace, Juice (multiplatform), Doppler (Windows), Podget (Linux) and Podracer (Linux). Some established audio players, such as AmaroK, Winamp and Mediamonkey also offer (sometimes limited) podcatching functionality.
Many podcasts also allow users to direct download, by giving a link to the audio file in an RSS feed or web page.
Podcast listeners can listen in one of three ways: through a specialized hardware device called an MP3 player, on a computer using media player software, or with VoIP technology by calling to a virtual phone number. By dialing a phone number, you can hear a menu of available podcasts and features. Find more about it in the external links section.
