Canadian literary/arts mag Descant has a great article on LibriVox, including this nice little para:

But “niche market” might be the wrong term for this site. It is not interested in creating a market. Nor is it interested in making a profit. There are no ads on the site and it proudly boasts a budget of $0. In short, it doesn’t pretend to be a place where commercial products are offered. The entire project … is built on a love of literature and a desire to get that literature out to others with similar inclinations. In fact, it is difficult to see how the
“business plan” could be converted into a money-making machine.

Also glad to see that the …chaotic … spirit with which we undertook Joyce’s Ulysses was grasped and appreciated!
