Do I need to have an iPod or MP3 player to listen to, or subscribe to, podcasts?
No, you don't.
Anyone with a computer connected to the internet can download and listen to MP3 files. You will need a media player on your computer (many PCs come with Windows Media Player, for example), and you'll also need speakers or headphones.
The advantage of transferring the downloads onto a portable player is that you can then listen to them on the move.
