Non-Free Audio recording software (for Windows)
- Podcast Maker
- Music Maker (similar to Garageband)
- Music Studio (professional audio & music production)

Example of a podcast, notice how the beginning (first 30 seconds) include information such as:
- The podcast title
- Episode number
- Date
- Place
- Author
- Web address (URL)
- Jingle (music/musical theme)
