No question. I just want to share a resource.

Librivox is a wonderful source for free audio books. You can play them on a computer, phone, Ipod or other device. There is a free app or you can just go to the site. Everything is either out of copyright (lots of classics) or books that the author has given away for free. There are also some great old radio shows too.
I'd suggest downloading the file you want rather than streaming it from the site. It will eat up your data if you don't.

These are all read by volunteers so the quality of the reading ranges widely. (Though some of the volunteers are professional readers.) However, if you find a reader you really like, you can search by their name so you can listen to everything that they have done.

Audio books are really great for long distance car journeys, where music gets boring and the quality of sound is not great. I'll see if I can record!

Thanks! I must admit I have never listened to even 1 audiobook and have been told I’m really missing out. I will try this!
