#22 Audiobooks (or "The end is in sight ")

We have a subscription to Netlibrary for ebooks available from the Yarra Plenty catalogue, but unfortunately eAudiobooks aren't included at the moment so I couldn't listen to anything. I hope we get this feature in the future!

I've been to World eBook Fair to look at the eaudiobooks there. The site is very easy to use. There is a choice of human voice and computer voice books to listen to. They open in Media Player. I listened to The Tale of Peter Rabbit and Shakespeare's Sonnet #29 both read by humans with thick American accents - ghastly! I then tried Jungle Tales of Tarzan read by a computer voice - I'm not sure which was scarier!!!
