List Of Podcatchers
A podcatcher, or podcast client, is a computer program used to download various media via an RSS or XML feed.
While podcatchers are most known for downloading podcasts (generally audio files in MP3 format), many are also capable of downloading video, newsfeeds, text, and pictures. Some podcatchers can also automate the transfer of received audio files to a portable media player. Although many include a directory of high-profile podcasts, they generally allow users to manually subscribe directly to a feed by providing the URL.
Although the core concepts had been developing since 2000, the first podcast client software was developed in late 2003, and became popular in 2004.
When Apple added podcatching to its iTunes software in June 2004 it almost immediately became the most popular client.
