What are some solid sites where I can source all of my audio books? Similar to what we have Anna’s archives and zlib for books, pdf .etc
audiobookbay which is open
myanonamouse - a private torrent tracker
it’s the easiest and most generous tracker so I suggest going with them.
How does one go about getting invites to private trackers? I have yet to figure it out. The advice generally given is “know somebody” but I don’t so…
In the case of MAM you go on irc and 3 times a week they hold application interviews. Just read the rules, and you’ll do fine.
Thank you.
I cannot recommend myanonymouse enough.
There is some startup lag with that site. The whole VIP/freeleach/wedge system is a bit convoluted, but grabbing some popular free torrents and keeping them seeded will get you going in no time. It is easily the best community I’ve seen on a torrent site and those restrictions are probably a big reason why.
audiobookbay is my goto and has most everything I have wanted to look for.
How you get an invite to it?
It’s invite only now? The last time I used it there was a simple signup button.
Yes sadly!
I just went to the site to verify. Goto login, and to the left of the user and password box there is a register link. Select torrent download and complete it from there.

Libby and Overdrive. Look at the megathread: https://rentry.co/megathread-books
I pay for and use Scrib everyday andni love it.
Holy shit use the goddamn search people. This gets posted every fucking day.
My brother/sister/person, I understand the frustration but let’s not be hostile out here. Honestly I don’t know that every lemmy app has a good intuitive search function inside of a community, so let’s give them the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes asking and making the post is faster than intuitively figuring out how everything here works.
No. Laziness is never an excuse I’ll accept.
Additionally, it hinders the quality of the contents in the feed.
Might as well not have a discussion page at all! Everything here is contained in Google so we can just search for any of our questions.
TIL there is a search function for Lemmy.
