In addition to Recorded Books, we use a company called "Books on Tape"
(1-800-541-5525) which is similar to Recorded Books. You get free
replacements for a year & then can buy them at mimimal cost thereafter.
We have standing orders with both Recorded Books & Books on Tape and are

very happy with their services.

We have also used Brilliance Audio, Blackstone Audio, Listening Library,

and Audio Editions.  Brilliance, Blackstone, & Audio Editions offer
replacements.  Listening Library offer replacements if you buy the
"library editions" of their tapes from them.

Any more sources?

I recommend Recorded Books and Books on Tape (www.booksontape.com).
They have a good selection, decent prices, and are very pleasant to
work with.  I found their standing order program to be far more
convenient than Recorded Books.
