Sure, Audible.Com is very accessible.  I use it on a regular basis mostly to
download books, but their is a lot of on-demand content that one can either
subscribe too, or purchase on a subscription plan.  For example, the plan I
has allows me to download two books per month.  plus, you can even burn them
onto CD!  One word of caution.  if you want the really high quality files, a
broadband connection is a must.  at least with books, because some of the
titles can weigh in at 100MB or more.  now if you have a really large HD
like I do, this isn't a problem.  You can also download the content in other
quality levels, each degrading the quality a little more.  Also if you don't
want to download titles, you can stream them via RealPlayer or Winblows
Media Player.  If you ever have a HD crash, you can always redownload the
content, because its in you're library permanently.  You bought it, so you
own it.  This is the most apealing reason to go with Audible.com.
