This year just ended with our 50th published audiobook. I hope that everybody has a nice Silvester evening and a most happy new year!
In case you wonder what new texts we can record in 2015, here are some ideas:

I like the idea of recording the "Jataka Tales" by Noor Inayat Khan very much!
And yes, I will try to get some information about current downloads. "listen.legamus.eu" emits around 150 GB per month.

I see that the little prince is becoming PD (at least the original)

Happy New Year!
Wikisource has a list, too

No famous names except Saint-Exupéry, from what I see at first glance. There will be interesting things to explore, I bet. Let's see what new texts Gutenberg DE has in the next days. They always have works prepared. Interesting translations maybe.
Hurray on 50 books!

Very best wishes for 2015!
After a dismal and unproductive 2014, I am determined to return to the microphone and give the world my reading of that landmark biography, The Quest for Corvo. It doesn't help that, very near my home, a heavy plant hire company has greatly expanded its business; so that my neighbourhood is continually traversed by their roaring vehicles. One always has the option of getting up at 4 in the morning...

Krzysztof Kamil Baczyński was a war-time poet killed during the Warsaw Uprising. I know nothing about his poetry, though, despite him being rather famous in Poland.
Irvin Cobb was a prolific writer from what I read
about him, but again I know little about his work, only that his short horror story "Fishhead" was praised by Lovecraft in "Supernatural Horror in Literature".
Hurray on 50 books!
Yeah
Hooray to us, because it was us that made it possible

I'd be up for that.
It's such a coincidence, I saw her name for the first time just a few hours ago. The BBC World Service recently aired a documentary about her war work. I've downloaded but not yet listened.
