Audible's new proposed royalty structure is a slap in the face to authors, readers who care about them, and exactly opposite of what they promised Brandon Sanderson barely a year ago.

It is an attempt to seize a monopoly by punishing authors until they agree to exclusivity, which would drive Audible's competitors out of the market.

LibreVox offers audiobooks for free. You can download or help record them. It's like Gutenberg for audiobooks. Like Gutenberg, it's mostly old/classic books, though.

I also recommend pirate bay. Lots of free audiobooks there too.
