Audio books online for download?

[eSDee]

I am not sure if this is in the right forum, but I was wondering if anyone knows any websites that feature audio books for download? I got a promotion not too long ago but I lost it. TIA.

Thanks Cubsfan. You watching the doubleheader? Prior is looking pretty good.

Audible rocks. :)

I've never heard an audiobook. Is the whole book actually read, or are they abridged?

I can't help wondering cause I'm a really slow reader, and if I ever recorded an audiobook on CD, it would probably be sold as a box set.

Just downloaded my first 2 books. Excellent resource! Thanks Cubsfan and Jen!

State of Fear was 15 hours unabridged. Good one. And yes... audible rocks.

They have lots of popular titles. Da Vinci Code... the Clinton autobiographies... business stuff.... it's a good service.

You can get them either way. I like both ways, depending on my time. When we lived in Garden City and it took us 6 hours to get down to my parent's house, we'd get the ones that were about 6-8 hours long. But right now, I have 4 burned on cd that I need to listen to that are double that. Well, 12-14 hrs. I love it. :)

Audible is great... Unfortunatley, I have 30 some odd books, only listened to 10, too lazy to grab my ipod... HAHAH I know I am strange.
