NEW YORK With the number of both amateur and professional podcasts growing, new distribution methods are appearing to make the files easier to find.

Apple and multimedia search engine Blinkx.tv said they would begin offering users the ability to find free podcasts, Internet audio files that can be downloaded to MP3 players like Apple’s iPod. Blinkx will allow podcast creators to submit their content for inclusion in its search index.

Apple has added over 3,000 audio files to its iTunes Music store, ranging from amateur podcasters to programs from established media outlets like the BBC, ABC News and Clear Channel.
