Thanks. I've been aware of Delphin, but it's three hundred freaking dollars! At some point, you have to look at the cost of a device that will get you access to "free" material, which turns out to be not so free after all once you start amortizing the cost of the device. I appreciate the input, but honestly if I had $300 of device money lying around, I'd start to think about an updated ereader as my priority. And my waterproof MP3 player's only a year old; my much loved and lamented Aerb bit the dust last summer after ten years of service.

I wish the quality of Librivox wasn't so spotty. I don't want to listen to an unadulterated diet of Victorian novels while I'm swimming, but I wouldn't mind slotting in the occasional one. I think Librivox is unfortunately like KU; a lot of work to find the occasional gem.
