What do I need to see or hear podcasts?

To see or hear podcasts, you need a computer with a sound card. If you want to take your podcasts on the go, you'll need to transfer them from your computer to a portable media device.

Do I need special software to receive podcasts?*

Why don't video podcasts play on my PC?*

Purina video podcasts are in .mp4 format, which you can view using the QuickTime player, RealPlayer or iTunes - all of which are available at no charge.
