Much smaller podcast MP3 files
From now on, podcast files will be a little more than one-third the size that they used to be. For example, the original file with the news for September 25th, which was available for the last seven hours on eslbusinessnews.com, was 8.3 megabytes; the new version is 3.4 megs, which will result in much faster downloads. The duration of the podcast is exactly the same, and there should be no noticable different in sound quality unless you're listening to ESL Business News on a really expensive sound system. Future podcasts will be much closer to 3 megs than 8.
