podcast

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'set of audio files' is the definition.
'podcast' can be an answer for 'files' (I have seen 'downloadable files' mean 'podcast' so perhaps 'files' could also mean 'podcast'). I'm not certain of the 'set of audio' bit.

'quiet with almost strange pitch' is the wordplay.
'quiet' becomes 'p' (music symbol for 'piano', ie soft or quiet).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'almost' means to remove the last letter (most of the word but not all of it).
'strange' becomes 'odd' (I've seen this before).
'pitch' becomes 'cast' (I've seen this before).
'odd' with its last letter removed is 'od'.
'p'+'od'+'cast'='PODCAST'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for podcast that I've seen before include "Distribute file(s) via internet to personal computers for playback" , "Downloadable programme" , "Audio file distributed over the internet" , "Downloadable multimedia file" , "Web feed" .)
