For some reason it didn't except "e1m5" as an answer :P

Been There Done That 
Hax 
using the wiki is che4tz0r! 
Wiki? 
I've had them all memorized since I was 9. 
 
The sun was hot for an hour or two in the middle of the day, but
even then in the shadow dwelt a cold breath -- of the winter, or of
death -- of something that humanity felt unfriendly. To Gibbie,
however, bare-legged, bare-footed, almost bare-bodied as he was, sun
or shadow made small difference, except as one of the musical
intervals of life that make the melody of existence.


This is an excerpt from what seems to be ancient Gibbie fanfiction I found while trying to find a download for Gibbie's Q1DM map "Shady." 
@_@ 
 
Whoa ._. 
 
Errrr... What Do We Do Now ? 
Suicide ? 
I Already Told Him Two Years Ago 
But what is time to such a transcended being as The Incredible Hylke....

Does Anyone Know Of This One?

It says it is international, but it is the first time i heard of it. 
This Is What I Get For Finally Giving The Benefit Of The Doubt 
ugh, audiobooks.com is a fucking nightmare, but they're in a quasi monopolist position... oh great, fucking DRM format, total vendor lockin also, buddies with apple and sony obv. Totally didn't see that coming, cough. At least I want mp3, so fuck it, dropped some cash on some shady software from some american daughter branch of some chinese ripoff multinational. Finally works, hit convert. "iTunes not installed"
Are you fucking kidding me? This 30 bucks POS is an iTunes front end?

Ah well, I brought it onto myself, was tired and impatient of getting bounced around the bureaucracy today, so I figured why not give in and make it easy on myself for the evening. What a load of bullshit.
I don't even care paying for stuff, but this is a fucking industry based on deceit. It's like those malware removal apps that are being handed out by the same people that write the damn shit. Anything for a buck. 
 
Their software is shit also, had 4 crashes in 15 mins. No features at all, not even chapter selection, not even a freaking 'stop' button. And it looks like something from 1998.
Oh, and their definition of 'unlimited' downloads = 10 a month. I could easily go over that during crunch months. 
Where 
is the revolution? 
Spiney 
Tried Audible maybe? Dunno if it's much better but some friends have recommended it to me. It's Amazon, which almost as bad as Apple most of the time, but at least they have DRM free mp3s on their site, so maybe it's the same for their audio-books? 
Audiobook Is Just A Front For Audible 
so no... :( 
 
This conversion software is funny. It plays the thing through iTunes and captures the audio using a virtual soundcard. Which is another way of saying I can't listen to anything during the process, which consists out of playing the 6 hour long read. Amazing! Think I'll get out my old crummy laptop and let it crunch on it, lol. 
 
That's what you get for buying DRM'd shite. Hi friends!
