Does Anyone Know Of Any Stores That Carry Books On Tape Or CD? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone know of any online bookstores or regular stores sell books on tape or cd? The only bookstore I know of here is Border's. Border's only has a small selection of books on tape/cd and, in my opinion, they are over priced. I'm interested in buying a book or two. I only have a few books on tape/cd and re-reading the same ones over and over gets boring. I do get books on tape from the library, but I can't keep them since they are only loan status. The books can only be checked out up to six weeks. Anyway, I'm curious if anyone knows of a store or site I can look into. Thanks.

Barnes and Noble may have a better selection. Of course, you can also try Amazon.com.

Both Barnes & Noble and Books-a-Million have audio books. B&N is probably the best book store chain out there, at least that I've seen (I live in Florida)... and Books-a-Million is (imo) a big step up from Borders in terms of book selection. I live near Sarasota Florida, and Sarasota has all three stores within a couple miles of each other.

The area where Borders seems to be better than the other two is their in-store DVD inventory..I've gotten a couple of DVDs at Borders that I couldn't find at Barnes & Noble. I don't think BAM has DVDs at this point, at least not in the stores I've been in (and I've been in a lot of 'em).

You can check to see if there's a B&N or a BAM near you on their "store locator" site:

And, of course, there's always amazon.com.

Good luck !
