Where to find free audio books

Project Gutenberg
There are many kids' audio books and free talking books, available at Project Gutenberg, which is found at Gutenberg.org. If you are at a site, that has Project Gutenberg in the name, but is charging for books, you are at a sneaky site, that has copied the content and is trying to sell the very books that Project Gutenberg wants to offer for free. All of the books on Gutenberg.org and Gutenberg.au are in the public domain, which means that you can find many classic stories to listen to, such as The Three Musketeers. Playing the audio files To listen to books, you can click on the title and play it on your computer, or you can save books as audio files to play on your iPod or mp3 player. The Gutenberg audio books are mp3 files, ogg files, and wav files. You can right click the file to save it to your computer, and then, import the file into your "audio books" file on your music manager. This way, your device may use the fine-tuned audio setting for voice recordings, instead of music settings.
