Just curious about something, if you don't mind me asking: I came
across abook about podcasting recently. As I was checking it out, it
seemed to me podcasting consists basically in serving a XML file that
contains, among text information, a link to an audio file. So the
software browsing this XML file would then retrieve this file stream
and play it.
Apart from being compliant with some devices such as iPod (so by using
this format I can stream contents to iPod users, for example), is
there anything else I missed about this technology?
Seems pretty simple, which is good, but considering the size of the
book, I thought there was more in it.
ps: yeah, I do realize the potential uses of the technology

Nope that's pretty much it in a nutshell. Podcasting is a simple idea whos
time has come really.
