    LibriVox wants all books in the public domain to be available, for free, in audio format, on the internet. We ask volunteers to record chapters of books in the public domain in digital format; all you need is a computer, some free recording software, and your own voice!

    @Guest If it's not in the public domain, it's not free. LibriVox is a free alternative at least.

    It is a great alternative to supporting independent bookstores instead of Amazon. It has a very similar pricing model to Audible but is DRM-free.
