Free E-books and Audio books. I just saved $420.
If you are like me and love reading books for enjoyment,  entertainment,   and knowledge, Kindle and librivox.org is where you need  to go. First  I  downloaded the free Amazon kindle app on my PC and went  ballistic  in  downloading the books that I have wanted to buy. Many of  these  books I  had on my wish list collecting cyber-dust. However, today  my  chubby  fingers were clicking away downloading these wonderful   treasures for  free. Now granted most all of these books are philosophy   books before  1929. But still that’s $390 I didn’t have to spend and 26   FREE books  that I downloaded in a matter of minutes. Another jewel I   found is www.librivox.org. I downloaded a few free audio books: Karl Marx’s, Das Kapital, Kierkegaard’s Either/Or and Works of Love. [Just a word of caution on Das Kapital, the file size is 1 gig and when Marx started talking about the proletariat and bourgeoisie both    working as laborers I said, "Hey, this is not for me. This fat boy    isn't working in a rice field, where's a Milton Friedman Audio book?"]    Now I imagine that these books are not on your top ten lists, but you    can find many classics for free on both sites. These sites have a  wealth   of knowledge and I encourage everyone to turn your television  off for a   week and digitally curl up to a good E-book or audio book  and learn to   dream again—be inspired!
