Still waiting to get to listen to the HD version of "Stairway to Heaven" that charlou posted in the old thread. The kids have been ill (either the one or the other) on and off for a week, so their voice books is pretty much all I hear now. The books are good, though, and I like hearing the stories again and again. Right now they are over half-way through "Princess Academy".
I'll admit I'm drunk.. on prescription meds that explicitly state DO NOT TAKE WITH ALCOHOL.. but I've utterly failed to parse this paragraph. :|

Your kids have 'voice books'? What are voice books and what do they have to do with the HD version of Stairway to Heaven?

The kids have CDs, where one or more people read a book (hence the name "voice book" - also known as "audio book"). One book is 5-8 CDs long. When they use the stereo system, I can't. Does that clear it up?

For examples of commercial voice books, check e.g. here: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_ ... udio+books

For examples of legally free (old enough = out of copyright) voice books (as MP3 and OGG files), check here: http://librivox.org/newcatalog/search.p ... ion=Search

Some of my all-time favorites include:
http://librivox.org/a-connecticut-yanke ... k-twain-2/
http://librivox.org/the-adventures-of-h ... version-2/
http://librivox.org/around-the-world-in ... s-verne-2/
http://librivox.org/the-wouldbegoods-by-edith-nesbit/

Enjoy!
