Podcasts aren’t radio stations at all, of course. They’re recorded audio programs of fixed lengths, available as files that can be downloaded to a computer or a portable audio device. In many cases they can be listened to on-demand online as if they were live.

Many broadcast radio stations make podcasts of their popular programs, music and talk. TV channels, newspapers, other media organizations and individuals everywhere offer podcasts. Their similarity in content to Internet radio stations makes it worth including some podcast resources here.
