A lot of people recommend AudiobookBay but FreeMediaHeckYeah warns to only use their torrents. Are there any known safe sources that provide direct downloads of audiobooks? Preferably something I don’t have to sign up for.

And no, unfortunately I do not have access to a library at this time.

    I use Nicotine+. It connects to the Soulseek network. I find many audiobooks there. Usually fast downloads. People share directly from their computers.

        Exactly what dubyakay said. Also you don’t have to share anything if you don’t want to. No automatic upload.

        No, because you share individual folders accessible to anyone. It’s not homogeneous data that is pooled together based on hash.

        If you have a copy of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and another guy has a copy of Dungeon Crawler Carl, people can choose to download from either of you, but not from both of you at the same time.
