So Audio books are pretty great. I checked out Overdrive and NetLibrary. I preferred NetLibrary and I thought the tutorial was excellent (both the one provided by the website and the 23 things tutorial). I downloaded Janet Evanovich's "One for the Money". I've read it already but I am dying to hear the storyteller's spin on the voices (being from Jersey myself).
I love the idea of having easy access to all those audio books. What a great tool for the visually impaired! My only complaints are that I couldn't find a lot of the books I wanted and NetLibrary is not Mac-friendly. Also, most of the books seem to be older. I am going to delve further into both sites and search some more, when I have a little extra time (this winter?!). I plan to fully utilize this tool!

Another option could be one of the audiobook rental or download services. I've been a using a company that offers a Netflix type service but with audiobooks. Pay monthly and receive as many audiobooks in the mail as you can handle. The turn around has been great and the customer service has been very kind when I accidentally lost one. They have a huge selection and you can request a book they don't have and they'll get it for you.
