January 19th, 2010 - Posted by Kent

We've just launched our newest review category: Audiobook Download and Rental Services. We took a look at the five leading services that allow you to shop for audiobooks online. Some services are subscription services that allow you to download a certain number of books a month, and some are rental services that work like Netflix. We also took a look at iTunes, to provide a comparison with a la cart download services. We get into the nitty gritty of book credits, device compatibility, library size, price, and sound quality.

Why audiobooks? Keeping up with your reading is a great way to stay informed and keep your brain active. Unfortunately, many people just don't have time to do it. Listening to an audiobooks is a great way to squeeze your "reading" into your daily routine.

So, check out our reviews, and find out how you can put a little more lit in your life.
