Heard any good books lately? If you haven't, you're missing out. By all accounts, the audio industry continues its upward momentum. According to the Audio

Publishers Association's most recent figures, sales, library circulation and digital downloads of audiobooks are all on the rise while returns are on the decline. The proliferation of the iPod and other digital audio playback devices is helping bring younger and more tech-savvy listeners into the fold. And while Audible still appears to be the download M.V.P., more companies are getting into the digital distribution game, using various models and business approaches to literally get the word out about how great listening can be.

From Harry Potter (the latest volume is the fastest-selling audiobook in history) to Easy Rawlins, Frank McCourt, Shakespeare, Abe Lincoln and Eragon, the gang's all here this fall waiting to be taken for a CD spin (or a download).

Happy listening!
