I confess I've never listened to an Audio Book...ever.
I do love reading though....is an Audio Book better then a regular book?

Greetings, Mcclane!

I posted this in another thread, but it will work for your purpose too.
The technique requires FireFox, you may have to listen to it a couple times.
I opened a Notepad document & Firefox and paused the vid the first couple times through to understand it better.
I've tested it with FF3 just now and got this result:
It will work better if you fine tune it.

If you're like me and enjoy listening to a wide variety of music
Try Jimmy Ruskas Music Search Engine

hint: if you are a student or researcher, the vid is worth watching all the way through; shows how to search .edu sites also
Here is his Youtube vid on how to use a oldstyle search tips for music / audiobooks download:
Code: Select all

for those too lazy I'll cut-n-paste mine:

Code: Select all

intitle:"index.of" (mp3|mp4|avi) No.one.knows -html -htm -php -asp -cf -jsp

Modified Result (watch the vid, you'll understand)

Code: Select all

http://www.google.com/search?q=intitle%3A%22index.of%22+%28mp3%7Cmp4%7Cavi%29+%s+-html+-htm+-php+-asp+-cf+-jsp&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

It works - here, random .mp3: Bulbous Bouffant <~~~ click
