Louis L'Amour Downloadable Audio
Thank you for choosing LouisLAmour.com as your source for downloadable audio by Louis L'Amour.
A "Downloadable Audio" is an audiobook that is downloaded and stored on your computer as a file or files. Downloadable Audio and packaged audiobooks, such as CDs, contain exactly the same content. The only difference is how you receive the material.
To make sound files smaller, MP3 uses "lossy" compression to throw away some of the less important parts of the signal. How much gets thrown away determines the size and quality of the sound file. At LouisLAmour.com, we KEEP more sound so you get a higher quality listening experience!
All of our Downloadable Audio files are custom created for LouisLAmour.com and meet the highest quality standards for digitized audiobooks. Each CD title was carefully loaded using technology which eliminates error and jitter from the CD Drive. With the highest quality MP3 conversion software available, we encode the data using variable bit rate compression which allows us to provide you with the highest quality MP3, based on each title's individual "sound signature." Because each track is analized and created individually, you are guaranteed the highest quality audio packed into every file!
An 'MP3 Digital Audiobook' is compatible with many different portable devices including most cell phones, PDAs, and MP3 players and can be played on your computer as well.
