The team that created Palm Digital Media and the PalmReader software has come together again to launch
Paperback Digital, Inc.
Paperback Digital will publish "attractively priced" MP3-CD audiobook editions of best-selling and classic titles from the
science-fiction, fantasy and horror genres. Most other audiobook suppliers still use traditional audio technology which limits an audio CD to only 74 minutes. With MP3, you can put
up to 15 hours of recorded voice on a single CD. Prices will vary between $14.95 and $25.00.
Paperback Digital will open its online bookstore on September 7th, and some of the first available audiobook titles will include:
- The Galileo Affair by Eric Flint and Andrew Dennis
- Spirits In The Wires by Charles de Lint
- Cally's War by John Ringo and Julie Cochrane
- Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris
- Reflex by Steven Gould
- Survival, Species Imperative 1 by Julie E. Czerneda
