Now that instructors have the ability to produce podcasts (audio and/or
video) of their lectures and demonstrations, some (how many I don't
know) are actually using podcasting to push the material to students.
MSU provides storage, syndication, and production services to
departments.
Since this would be a good way for us to "show and tell" some of the
complexities of the financial aid process, I'm just trying to get an
idea how many students already use mp3 players (the number who have
video capability would also be useful).

Do you mean that just play mp3 files? Maybe a more exact question is
how many video capable mp3 devices are out there? Or who has just music
playing devices? Is this about podcasts? I don't mean to sound crude,
I am only trying to get detailed responses to this question cause I am
curious myself.
Maybe we need to make a web pole for the students.

Do we have an idea how many MSU students have mp3 players?
I did get stats in a class today that of students who own mp3 players,
the vast majority have iPods.
