Audio Books on CD
Originally books on tape were the only way to enjoy talking books, with the advances of modern technology, digital books are readily available on CDs.
More and more people are choosing CD audio books over books on tape, and downloaded audio books, which have only recently entered the market.
Books downloaded onto your computer can then be burned onto a CD player. A lengthy book like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone requires 6 cassette tapes, while the entire audio book is on 1 CD.
CDs offer the flexibility of allowing the user to play them on personal players, home stereos and in the car.
Start Where You left Off
Many people are mistaken when they think you cannot continue to listen to an audio book on CD from the point where you left off. All recent factory installed car CD players have the ability to bookmark a CD if the car or CD player is turned off. Provided you do not remove the CD it will automatically return to the point where you stopped. Most CD audio books have tracks at regular intervals. All you need to do is remember the track number.
Where To Find Audio Books On CD
Audio books on CDs are widely available for rent through public libraries, and for purchase at books store and online. You will find the best selection of titles and authors on the CD format.
Be aware that some books require multiple CDs, and some books clubs count each CD as one point instead of each book when calculating your rental.
