    I mean, there’s a lot of work that goes into recording and editing the audio for an entire book. As well as desire for good talent to do the reading and acting is an important part of audio books as well.

      This is actually one thing your local library is great about. A lot of them use a service called Libby. It’s free, works for the most part, automatically returns, and your ISP won’t “strike” you for slipping up lol
