2. Subscribe to podcastsDepending on which podcast software you have installed on your computer you need to follow the next steps in order to subscribe to your podcasts:
For iTunes softwareGo to the iTunes Podcast Directory and select the podcast you want to sign up to. If you can't find the podcast that you want in iTunes then you can follow the same method as outlined below for Juice, Doppler and other podcast software.
For Juice, Doppler or other podcast softwareIf you use Juice, Doppler or any other podcast software or of you can’t find the podcast you were looking for in iTunes, then you should follow these instructions:
You need to find the feed for the podcast and add it to your software. The feed is the address your podcast software has to search in order to check for new podcasts of your specified series.
In order to find the feed click on the "Subscribe to Podcast" link and the feed address will appear in the address bar of your internet browser.
You will need to copy this feed address and paste it into your podcast software. How you do this will depend on your software, but you should look out for buttons or links that say "Add" or "Subscribe".
3. Listen to the audio
Your podcast software will automatically download any new podcasts you have subscribed to. You can then listen to this episode on your computer or transfer it to your portable player to listen to later.
If you decide that you no longer want to receive podcasts from your specified series then it should be very easy to unsubscribe. Again, how you do this will depend on your software, but you should look for "Clear" or "Unsubscribe" options.
