About
During the 1970s and 80s, books on tape (cassette) were in their heyday. This channel contains digitalized books on tape which are rare and no longer published or streaming on subscription sites. However, the stories and reading performances are too good to be lost forever. Most of the stories released back then were abridged i.e. movie length*. Yet, they keep the spirit of the story intact. Click on Videos to see all the books on tape. Not sure if you want to listen to a particular audiobook, give it a 10 minute listen to decide. Enjoy!
* I found that most unabridged versions, of the audiobooks on this channel, are on paid streaming channels and so I can't put them online without getting a copyright strike. Plus there's more cost and work involved. A 20 hour book on tape (vs say a 3 hour abridged) takes 20 hours to upload (vs 3 hours). Additional time is required to remove; hissing, pops, and improve the sound. If you want unabridged audiobooks, you'll want to look elsewhere.
