Itunes and Podcasts

I have been using  Itunes to search for and listen to podcasts.   It is like a Tivo for podcasts, many of which are video as well as audio. Once you download the software, you can then go to their store and search for Podcasts.    Best of all the podcasts and the software are free and easy to use.

Now every day I listen to the first hour of the Today Show, to some spiritual affirmations, to self-help talks, and lectures from various universities or businesses.   I am also listening to Oprah and Echkart Tolle which I have "subscribed" to through Itunes.  If I wanted to, I could burn the podcasts to disks, but I have not done that yet.  I did put all my music into the Itunes library and now play it using the Itunes player. And I will say my favorite word again. It is free!!  Works on Windows and also Mac computers.  

In the beginning, I had purchased an Ipod thinking that I would then download the podcasts to my Ipod and listen to them at work. However, I found it easier to just take my laptop to work and hook it into some portable speakers, I leave at work.
