There is an exhaustive and excellent article in Reason Magazine about LibriVox, focusing on the philosophy and the “movement” we are part of, as described by Yochai Benkler’s Wealth of Networks.
The article includes comments from Jimmy Wales, and Audible.com’s CEO, among others.
Juicy bit:
It’s not that they don’t care about listeners … it’s that LibriVox, […]

The LibriVox community has just passed a tremendous milestone: We now have over a thousand readers who have contributed recordings.
That’s right, a thousand busy individuals with lives to lead, have all taken the time to sit in front of a microphone and share their love of literature with the world.

There is great stuff out there, but for many not-so-net-savvy people there exist many problems […]
