You can get them on MP3 now too. There are several reasons for the high prices. For a start, popular as they are, they still don't sell in great numbers, so the markup will be higher. Also, royalties have to be paid to the reader as well as the author, and then there are studio costs. There's also a higher production cost to them. WIth a book, you're producing one item. With an audiobook you have to produce several CDs, case, wallets and cover, and pay for the resources to put them all together - transport, man hours etc. Do the right thing - support your local library! ;-) https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4653986 LALAArts & Literature https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4653986 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 20:16:43 +0000 https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4653986 Too right! https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4654177 LALAArts & Literature https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4654177 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 22:15:48 +0000 https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4654177 Thanks all https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4655498 LALAArts & Literature https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4655498 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 14:02:46 +0000 https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4655498 Hi Dave Try this website, I've downloaded a few classics from here for free. http://librivox.org/ https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4673624 LALAArts & Literature https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4673624 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 13:00:45 +0000 https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Arts-and-Literature/Question874233.html?answer=4673624
