I'm going largely on memory here, to try to reconstruct it.

Your Dec. 7 post (#1362?) showed the availability of A Christmas Carol narrated by Jim Dale, at Audiobooks.org. Apparently it is no longer on the website, because I searched thoroughly and could not find it.

However, I have found a free full audio download of ACC by Dale here. The only requirement is that you agree to receive (a) newsletter(s) for Books On Tape and Listening Library.

Jim Dale has narrated a lot of stuff, and from that it appears that he is a good one. But, I didn't listen to any sample.

You can't download it to your phone, you can only stream it that way. You can download it to your computer, however.

List price of the CD's is $30. I don't know if anyone has actually ever paid list price though.

The sign up webpage is the same webpage as I referenced earlier.
Thanks - will add to OP and ACC post

The BOT version (1 file) is easier to download than the Audiobooks.org version (6 files), but the BOT offer expires (31 Dec) and the Audiobooks.org offer doesn't.

Books on Tape - Free Full Audiobook

Sign up for the BOT and Listening Library newsletters and receive the free full audiobook download of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, read by Jim Dale. A timeless story the whole family will enjoy.

Please note - if you're on a phone you can stream the audiobook but you can only download the file onto a computer.

*Offer expires 12/31/16
