Hey everyone, be sure to see Manjoo's column in New York Times on audiobooks. Though librivox is not mentioned, we're still an interested audience, I think. From his column: "Audiobooks are not to be feared; they do not portend the death of literature on the altar of modern convenience. Their popularity is a sign, rather, of the endurance of stories and of storytelling."
