And here’s a thank you note from a listener Justin in Kentucky:

I just read about LibriVox on Wired.com and I have just got to say “Thank you!” I wish I had found it much sooner. The thank you is from myself and from my grandmother. Nearly 12 years ago she went blind. She was about 65 when that happened and doesn’t have the ability to learn braile. She/I/our group (National Federation of the Blind: Murray, KY Chapter) have been searching for better ways to get audio books and tapes at a less expensive prices for our members (we range from about 25-50 from year to year). There is barely enough budget to supply a Thanksgiving and Christmas party each year. Our local library supplies a few titles but they are few and far between and the CDs and tapes seem to be abused and broken by those who check them out so they rarely work properly. There are also “radio stations” at an extremely high subsciption rate. With your site, I can direct our chapter, and hopefully more, to free, quality content. You are a blessing to my grandmother and all who can benefit from your work. Thanks again!
