From the authors:

Accessible Podcatcher (formerly Accessible Podcaster) is a simple way for blind and screen reader users to use podcasts. Podcasting is a way to distribute audio files on the web. Accessible Podcatcher lets you access these podcasts. You can listen to them, forward and rewind, save particular items to disk, and export and import lists of podcasts to send to other people. You also get Accessible Podcast Directory, a way for you to find new podcasts to add to your collection.

(In case you're wondering: Podcasting is the process of sending your audio files out, while Podcatching is the process of receiving and listening to other people's podcasts. This application does the latter, hence the name change or correction.)

Accessible World Tek Talk has a great piece on Accessible Podcatcher, describing the basics of how it is used. Accessible World Tek Talk presents Rick Harmon discussing Podcasting June 7, 2010.

Horribly out of date!

Hi, I'm Alasdair King, the developer of Accessible Podcatcher. This installer is now five years old and horribly out-of-date. Get the latest version - still free, still open-source - from http://www.webbie.org.uk. Otherwise many things will probably not work - this version is pre-Vista, for example.
