I've heard of it, but honestly never used it,neither found many audio books converted in this format.
If speex is superior to .wma it could become an option for audiobooks.
Though some audiobooks use background music.
I can't remember it clearly but I thought Speex was more some sort of audio encoding like used in cell phones? Like there's a serious quality deterioration in the higher frequencies?
I'm not sure, I read about it a couple of years ago, but can't remember why I never continued working with that codec.
*Edit: They've updated Speex samples, and sounding pretty good in 20kbps!*
*Edit 2: Could have been due to Speex not having an easy installer in windows*
