Week 9: Podcasts, Video & Downloadable audio continued

#22 Audio Books
Thanks to Project Gutenberg on World eBook Fair, those of us lucky enough to have Internet access can freely download some classic stories and other reads to listen to at home, in travel or while exercising. Then, if we so choose, we can extend this service to user paid material from this site or others.

I have already downloaded a tried and true children's story, Beatrix Potter's The Tales of Peter Rabbit, the first of many I'm sure. A terrific way to collate some stories and entertain the children during a lengthy drive. Moreover, participation is not limited to a pc, mp3 player or ipod, the project's provision of a BitTorrent means that downloads can also be in CD format.
