"In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea..."
Nice to listen to such lovely words from an old opium-eater whilst I type away.
It's got to be good for public libraries when the technology is widely established enough amongst our patrons to move from hardcopy (CD & tapes-urgh!) to electronic provision of audiobooks. The hardcopies are very expensive, especially considering their circulation, and easy to ruin (one missing disc, one wonky tape).
The eBook still has flaws compared to the original (awkward at the beach, etc.), but the eAudiobook's time has come... Bring it on!
