Today's free audio books are a terrific way to experience the literary works of some of the world's finest authors, without having to turn a page. These audio books are often available online, with free downloads. This is a great way to check out some of the new works of your favorite authors or discover new authors you have never read. The world of audio books has certainly changed from the 1980's.
First available on cassette tapes, the literary publishing giants were slow to release many new books. Once the demand grew, a very large percentage of books are available as an audio book, as well as in print. With the technology now available to download these free audio books onto an MP3 player or an iPod, or even your home computer, this section of the publishing business has grown by leaps and bounds. Many of today's authors are finding it easier to publish their book as an audio book, than to even get it in print.
Today's technological advance will give way to tomorrow's. Someday we may enjoy a good audio book just by talking to the computer. For now, though, we need to settle for researching the best free audio book download websites and locating what we are interested in.
This is very easy to do. Search the Internet for "free audio book" or "free audio books download". You probably will be amazed at the amount of sites that offer this service. Many of the pay sites also offer free audio books, but you may have to register or sign up first. Some will require credit card information while others may offer a direct download. Keep you information secure however, and check out the site before releasing your personal information.
Every genre is available on an audio book: your favorite authors, the classics, reference materials, even cookbooks. Search the web for your favorites and look to see if they are available as a free audio book download. Not only do they take up less room in your home than a printed copy, you can listen as you drive to work or on a long road trip.
