The iPod and free audio book downloads online

iPod MP3 players have several features making them particularly suited to audio book playback. The most important of these is an automatic book marking feature that does not require the user to take any actions. The iPod will save your place in audio book files without having to navigate menus and manually set bookmarks. When you visit BooksShouldBeFree.com you can download a zip file containing MP3 files for each chapter of an audio book. If you wish to listen to this audio book on your iPod. You need only to merge the MP3 files for each chapter and then rename the resulting MP3 file to have an .m4b extension.

Alternatively, if you visit AudioOwl.com you can import free audio book downloads into your iPod directly from the website. This method brings the audio books into your iTunes library as a podcast with one separate file for each chapter of the audio book. Once the free audio book is in iTunes you can choose which chapters you wish to download, listen to and transfer to your iPod. Or you can just download the entire book into iTunes. Finally, some more of the genres that I feature on AudioOwl.com are Historical Fiction, History, Holiday, Horror/Ghost stories, Humor, Instruction, Languages and Literature.
