Even in the fast-paced world of digital entertainment, people still like books. There is something refreshing about exercising your imagination, for a change. Hopefully that won't be lost as books gradually change format.
Digital books are in the news quite a bit lately. However, audio books aren't mentioned much. In fact, audio books have always stayed under the radar. And I've never understood why.
Of course, reading a book yourself is better, when you have the opportunity. But, if you are driving or walking, audio books are perfect. The problem sometimes is finding them, and at a decent price.
Books Should Be Free aims to help. This Web site collects and distributes public domain audio books. There is a vast selection, including many classics and children's books. You can search by book title or category. Each book has a short preview.
The books are available for download in MP3 format. You can also load them as iTunes podcasts. Either option allows them to be used on a portable MP3 player. Take them anywhere you want to go.
