New
To Podcasting?
Before
we begin we would like to recommend that you download and
install the latest version of iTunes. Version
4.9 of iTunes is simply the best way to automatically receive
our 94-9 KCMO Podcasts. Click
here to download iTunes. There are other
free podcasts programs such as iPodder but, in our opinion, iTunes is the easiet to use and best
performing of them all.
What
is Podcasting?
'Podcasting' allows you to receive automatic, FREE, downloads
of 94-9 KCMO exclusive content (in MP3 format) directly to
your PC. Better yet, you can have the Bone Podcast automatically
loaded on to your iPod or other MP3 player.
Do I have to have an iPod?
No, Podcasts work on almost all MP3 players but by using iTunes
and an iPod you have the easiest possible access to our Bone
Podcasts. If all you want to do is listen from you laptop or
desktop you don't even need a portable MP3 player for our Podcasts.
Just click on the desired Podcast and listen via iTunes or Windows
Media Player. It's that easy.
What
Do I Need To Receive A Podcast?
•You will need a connection to the
Internet.
•You will need a Podcast
Aggregator (Podcatcher) such as iTunes or iPodder.
•You will need a media/audio
player such as iTunes, Windows Media or other MP3
•compatible player.
•If you want to transfer
audio to your MP3 player you will need the audio management
software that came with your MP3 player to transfer the Podcast
to it.
How Does It Work?
94-9 KCMO will make available selected audio features in MP3
format which a Podcatcher, will download to your
computer and store on your hard drive. You may then listen
using Windows Media Player from your desktop or laptop computer
or have the audio feature (Podcast) transferred to your personal
MP3 player so you can take the audio with you. This allows
you to become "untethered" from your desktop or
laptop computer. You'll be able to listen when and where you
please without requiring an Internet connection.
Note: You will need to add the 94-9 KCMO
Podcast station to your Podcatcher in order to begin receiving
the downloads.
How Is Podcasting Different From
Listening Online?
Podcasting differs from broadcasting and webcasting in how
content is transmitted; instead of a central audio stream,
listeners download audio files automatically in MP3 format
to their computer so they can listen at any time or place.
Is Podcasting Free?
Yes Podcasts are FREE! There is no charge for downloading
a Podcast from 94-9 KCMO. Of course you'll have to supply
your own computer, connection, MP3 player, etc.
What
Are The Benefits Of Podcasting?

and programs known as Podcasts which are downloaded automatically
to your computer. Listen when you want to listen.
