So….what is the difference between a webcast and a podcast. Many people simply think of podcasts as the audio only program. But, that is not quite correct.
According to PCMag, although originally podcasts were made for the ipod MP3 style listening devices (hence “pod”), they now may also include video.
What separates a podcast from a webcast is that, just like the radio broad”casts”, they are in a syndication format. Think of your RSS feeds being used for these.
Webcasts, on the other hand, is the live or delayed version of the sound or video broadcast.
