A Web site that wants to allow other sites to publish some of its content creates an RSS document and registers the document with an RSS publisher. It includes such data as news feeds, events listings, news stories, headlines, project updates, excerpts from discussion forums or even corporate information.
 * 1. Delivery of podcasts is through subscription using RSS or Atom – what is RSS and how does it work?**

Users of RSS content use programs called feed "readers" or "aggregators": the user "subscribes" to a feed by supplying to their reader a link to the feed; the reader can then check the user's subscribed feeds to see if any of those feeds have new content since the last time it checked, and if so, retrieve that content and present it to the user.

Podcasts can be distributed through linked downloads – Describe how you can download a podcast through a link on a website** //By using iTune//. iTune is one type of media player that allows users to download songs and podcasts, by simply subscribing to the particular podcast.
