Audio books ??


Does anybody on here listen to audio books? I have down loaded a few since I got my ipod, but I was wondering if anybody else listened to them and could recommend a good (fairly cheap) place to down load them from or buy online.

Re: Audio books ??


I have bought the occasional one and sometimes download 'speech radio' from the Radio4 website.
There is a specific site for audio book downloads, which I was quite excited abut when I found it, but I thought their prices were very high, so never joined up for the service.

None of the sites I can find seem very reasonable, it is going to cost me around £30 a week for the books I can listen to (hey I have got the bug!!) which works out rather expensive!!!
