Met Podcast offers visitors a new and exciting way to enjoy audio programming. You may listen to one or more of these FREE special-edition episodes on your computer or download them for use with any portable MP3 player. You may also subscribe to receive new Met Podcast episodes automatically, as soon as they become available. Although they are produced in conjunction with specific exhibitions, these episodes include special features that may be enjoyed before or after a visit to the Museum—or simply on their own, even after an exhibition has closed. An iPod is not necessary to listen to a podcast audio program.
The Audio Guide is another way to enjoy audio programming while at the Museum. Available for a single, daily rental at the Admissions Desks and at other locations throughout the Museum, Audio Guide players provide access to insightful programming about the Museum's permanent collection and special exhibitions—including all current special exhibition podcasts—all in one player.
