Media RSS

Media RSS (MRSS) is a RSS (file format) module used for syndicating Multimedia files (audio, video, image) in RSS feeds. It was designed by Yahoo! and the Media RSS community, and adds several enhancements to RSS Enclosures.

Recently, this format has been getting increased attention, due to the development of Podcasting, which uses the Media RSS format as a means of delivering audio content to popular MP3-playing devices such as Apple Computer s iPod.
