@rbn @FallenWalnut sounded great, but after checking, not a single book I want to listen to is available :/

[โ€“] rbn@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Are these books available as audiobooks in general? At least so far, everything I wanted was part of the subscription, even really expensive and/or new stuff.

Thanks for the suggestion! Will add it to the next version of the guide.

[โ€“] azettl@social.vivaldi.net 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

@rbn Yes, I found them on audible and audiobooks.com

[โ€“] rbn@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

OK, sorry to hear that. As you mentioned audiobooks.com, are you looking for English content maybe? So far, I only downloaded German stuff but of course definitely possible that I've just been lucky so far.

@rbn Yeah, I'm looking for English content mainly about software engineering and engineering management, so it's very specific ๐Ÿ˜…. But the MP3 download made me look cause that would be awesome.
