learnoutloud.com
When you sign up with learnoutloud.com it gives you access to thousands of audio books, podcasts, and videos. The site does offer some free stuff, but for the most part you will have to pay for what you want. You can search for what you want in a variety of ways: most popular, by author, by publisher, etc. When you become a member you get credit each month you can use to buy things, and if you don't use the credits they will roll over to the next month. Everything you download from this site is in MP3 format. Members can also get some good discounts on the merchandise. One cool feature about this site is you can publish your own stuff. There is an extension of the site called Teach Out Loud. This part of the site allows teachers to publish their own work. I really liked the mission of the site. They want to show teachers that it is easy to turn that "down time" into something special and educational for the kids using audio and visual tools to help fill that time.
This site fits right in with the chapter because the chapter is all about MP3 players and everything you download from this site is in MP3 format. This site have many educational uses which again goes right on along with the chapter since it also discusses how to use MP3 players in the classroom.
