I simply ask for the best, most common and simple way to set up a podcast? Please, I need an answer so I can close this question?
I run a joomla-based website for a small church and now need a simple, cheap and effective solution for an audio podcast.
I am looking for a solution that will do the following:
User uploads audio files to service (preferably not to our own site) that is cheap, fast and simple to use. Dropbox for example?
Files are easily embeddable into Joomla website articles to be played on the spot (through simple-to-use and media player). Preferably through RSS feeds (to make it easy to update every week).
Files are downloadable.
Files are viewable on iPhones and other smartphones.
Solution can be broadcasted via iTunes.
Solution doesn't need a lot of extra, new third party software. I'd rather keep it simple and familiar than have it be a complete new system but with a steep learning curve.
At the moment we use vimeo to host the podcast, through video files. But we'd like to move to something simpler that doesn't involve a series of difficult steps to upload the files to the web.
