I already did the UK for today, but not the US. Thanks in advance ![]() tm |

The ebook behind Downpour's Atom Land:
4.2 (7) stars - Amazon. 4.09 (32) - GoodReads I consider the aggregate of these ratings to be very good. IMHO, of supreme importance in the field of physics, where knowledge increases (and changes) rapidly*, is "how long ago was the book published?" The news is good for this ebook: it was published just this past March 20. It's a "buy" for me. I'll be shunting aside all of the other audiobooks that I haven't listened to, in order to listen to this one, before the information on it becomes too outdated. * An example/illustration: Stephen Hawkings' final theory of the cosmos (about the length of a typical college term paper) was released just this past week (it is available for free on the Web, by the way).

Wondering why there hasn't been a free audiobook of the month from LearnOutLoud? This might explain it.

LearnOutLoud says that they have made the 60 audiobooks that they have published over the years available for free now. I wanted to do a search for just those audiobooks, but couldn't find a way to do it (after what I admit was not a particularly long time trying). Does anyone know how to do a sort so as to get only those LoL-published audiobooks, as hits? Another question--has anyone, besides me, wondered how LoL makes their money to stay in business? Of course, probably most of their audiobooks are in the public domain, or the owners of the copyrights let LoL reproduce the audiobooks free. But, they have to have a lot of other costs--to provide and maintain the website, pay employees, etc. As long as I've known about them, I never remember them offering many audiobooks for sale. I know that there are other sites which provide free audiobooks, but they have a for-profit side to their business which seems to finance the free side. Others--Internet Archive, et al.--depend on donations, grants, etc. I never have noticed LoL asking for donations or indicating that they receive grants. They seem not to fall under either one of the previous two business models. |

Where it shows formats on the right, checking Audio Download will get you down to 82. The extra 22 are probably downloads from LOL that were always free. Some of them, for example, seem to be recordings of Wikipedia articles.

Audible has members-only "editor's choice" sale through May 10, 11:59 p.m. PT; the books in the sale are marked down to $6.95.
Looks like there are approximately 180 books in the sale; categories are Fiction & Romance; Bios & Memoirs; Nonfiction; Young Adult; Mystery & True Crime; Sci-Fi & Fantasy; Self Dev & Biz. I did find one book that was on my wish list, so I'm happy! |
