Language Podcasts Hey Everyone, A tech trivia question: I have a freeware podcast client (Lime) and I have it pointed to an xml page with feeds (files various languages). I figure I can hack the "genres" of the client and relabel as languages. However, I have no expertise or idea what to do to keep my students from downloading all new podcast items regardless of language. If I succeed in getting the client to display categories as "languages" will students be able to download one category/language? Has anyone met a client or developed a solution to this idea/problem? I would welcome input. Thanks in advance for your time and trouble. Tracy. Tracy N.
