Week 9 Thing 22 - eBooks and Audio eBooks

The World eBook Fair - good resources for eBooks and links for available audio eBooks. My attention was captured by the link to the site audiobooksforfree. I noticed however, that it is the lower quality recordings that are available for free. Anything ranked form reasonable to very goog quality has a fee attached. It would be interesting to discover what the difference in recording quality really is on this site and a comparison across sites offering audio eBooks.
Project Gutenberg was also fascinating. I prefer to read a paper version of a book but I can see accessing the electronic version if I could view it without downloading in order to answer a reference question.
