Podcatching Software
&&uotUsing a podcatching tool is the best way to subscribe to and receive podcasts automatically. Once you subscribe to a podcast feed, all episodes will be delivered to you via the podcatching software. Below you will find links to a small set of tools to use. Apple's iTunes software is a cross platform digital media management toolset that has a built-in podcast directory as well as podcatching features. Juice software is also cross platform. It allows a user to schedule podcast downloads and maintain subscriptions to their favorite podcasts. Fireant brings video content (vodcasts) to users in much the same way as Juice does for podcasts.
Other tools offer similar capabilities. Ultimately it is up to you to decide what software package works best for you.
