Get free audiobooks from BMW
Posted 1 year, 11 months ago by AldereteBMW is offering four short stories in audio format at the new BMW Audio Books web site:
BMW, in conjunction with Random House, brings you BMW Audio Books, a unique series of specially- commissioned short stories showcasing the work of some of the finest contemporary writing talent. Each gripping audio book is yours to download for free.
While there is some “product placement” for BMW, the stories are high quality efforts by accomplished authors. The stories average about 50 minutes, and the narration is professional. The books are free in cost (but see below), and are also in MP3 format, meaning you can play them just about anywhere. I’m sure BMW hopes you’ll do it in the cockpit of a new car from their favorite manufacturer, but it’ll work with your iPod on Muni or the bus, too. Just download, and drag the downloaded files into the iTunes Library window.
To download you need to give BMW an email address. It can be a bogus address (there’s no verification), but from the text, if you give them a real address, you’ll be notified when new audio content is published to the site. (I gave them a real address.)

A slight tip for your site, when i was filling out this comments thing, buttons like tab and backspace would sometimes conflict with firefox. Ie: i would goto delete a character and the browser would go back to the previous page. the problem may well be at my end tho.
