NHC will be producing experimental audio briefings (also called podcasts) again for the 2012 Hurricane season when the media pool is activated.  The audio feeds will be created in mp3 format, and to increase their accessibility, links to the mp3 files will be made available through XML/RSS technology.  Anyone with an mp3 player and podcasting software can receive the audio file from the National Hurricane Center. The .mp3 audio format is an industry standard which allows audio products to be dissemeniated via the Internet.
