When new content is added to a podcast feed, JAWS announces "new" after the
feed title. You can then activate the link to visit the podcast page where
you will normally find a link that will begin playing the podcast
immediately upon activation with Windows Media Player or whatever other
media player you have set as your default. There is no need to download the
podcast, unless you want to save it for listening on an IPod or MP3 player.
So for instanxce,I regularly monitor the SeroTalk page for new podcasts.
When a new podcast is posted, usually once or twice a week, I visit the
SeroTalk page, locate the link to listen to the podcast, and hit Enter.
Windows Media Player then begins playing the podcast immediately.

Gerald,
Thanks for the clarification. So when you say the RSS feed
will alert me as to when new content is posted, does it
automatically download and put it into a folder like Juice
or do you need to go to the site and then choose to listen
or download. Other question is why do you prefer Accessible
POD catcher and Klango? Are these two separate programs and
where would they be available?
thanks
Al

IE 7 and 8 have a built-in RSS feed reader that can be used
to subscribe to
podcasts. When you subscribe to a podcast feed, you will be
alerted
whenever a new
podcast is posted, which you can listen to using your
default media player.
I subscribe to more than 50 RSS and podcast feeds using the
feed reader
built into IE 7, and I check my feeds twice a day for new
content. It is
one of the best features of IE 7 and 8, and is totally
accessible with JAWS
8 and higher. However, not all podcasts have a feeds, so
you may still want
to continue using Juice to listen to such podcasts.
Personally, I prefer
Accessible Podcatcher and Klango.

Not being one to rush things, I am still with I E 6. Now
that I have JAWS 11 installed I would like to go to I E 8
to
take full advantage of the JAWS 11 features. My question
is
will I still need a POD catcher (currently using juice)
with
I E 8 or does that have a feature built in to do what
juice
currently does. Thanks
