Well, I'm a Radio 4 junkie and collect audiobooks and podcasts as well, but
there's quite a few books that would either make lousy audiobooks, or are
just nt economic to produce.

Would an audiobook version of the Camel Book *really* be of use? It'd be
about as fun as reading a transcript of Just a Minute.

But the question remains? Who other than Amazon is a fast/cheap/good
bookseller? Sure, you can only pick two, but Amazon seem to give me about
.5/.75/.75 which adds up to two :)
