archive.org has a bunch of free audiobooks. As does Librivox. As does your local library. I can afford it and I like the interface but there are plenty of legal, free alternatives particularly when you're talking about public domain stuff.

EDIT: in my rush to be helpful I failed to notice that devac made me irrelevant an hour before I woke up.

I always forget that they're not just the wayback machine.

They have a physical copy audiobook of Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century that I've been eyeing for a while now.

I forget about the digital stuff though. It's the future, man! Thanks for the suggestions. Many new catalogs to explore now.

And don't forget that if you want to see a task over-accomplished with an excessive bibliography and an impressive appendix of semi-useful "see alsos", ask a librarian. They are aggressively helpful.
