Also have the Sil on cassette somewhere (lost in the move) which is pretty much useless as I don't think that even the kids have a working tape player. Have the Hobbit (theatrical) on CD too, but that's not as fun. A single reader without sound effects to me is better than the multi-cast pan-banging variety.

Anyway, if you have a long commute, the audio books are worth it, and though a "privately organized" version may be cheaper and more fun, shouldn't we also support those who support good literature?
almost sounds like your insulting my idea
(kidding)
actually I like the hobbit and lotr dramatized cd versions
thats why i wanted to do this being a fan i love the book but reading it is just too wearisomee hearin it is easier and i personally absorb more because im not skipping the songs or paragraphs here and there to just get to the finish
