Podcasts are downloadable audio programmes that you can listen to whenever you want.  You can listen to them on any suitably-equipped mp3 player, mobile phone, PDA or computer. 

Scran podcasts are available in two formats: mp3 format, which is audio-only, and m4a (enhanced) format which also includes Scran thumbnails to accompany the audio track. 

Scran podcasts are a new addition to our resources and can be streamed and downloaded in a number of different ways.
