On Aug 30, 2005, at 1:01 PM, someone asked:

(I've had so many of these requests that I decided I'd better write to 
the whole list.)

My favorite audiobook vendor is Listening Library, which has recently 
been purchased by Random House (Books on Tape).  
http://library.booksontape.com/

They have an excellent readers (sometimes the author is the reader), 
provide hard shell library cases, have the most appealing covers 
(usually identical to the book cover) and an online catalog.  You can 
subscribe to their standing order plan, which requires you to buy 
either 2 or 3 audiobooks a month, and you get 20% or 25% off everything 
you buy.  They have suggestions each month but you can choose to buy 
anything from their catalog to fulfill your standing order.  I allocate 
about $600/yr to my audiobook standing order (2 titles per month, 
including summers).
