New Mac-based audiobook provider Telltale Weekly launches with DRM-free audiobooks for under a dollar. New unabridged audiobooks will be released every Friday in MP3 and Ogg Vorbis formats.
The site uses the Bitpass micropayment solution to offer recordings for as little as 25 cents and still be able to fairly compensate artists. All recordings from Telltale Weekly are DRM-free, so users may use the files on an unlimited number of computers, CD-Rs, and players for personal use.
Many of the current and future recordings offered by Telltale Weekly are of performances of texts in the public domain. These are produced with the intention of releasing them under the Creative Commons Attribution License five years or 100,000 sales after their first appearance on the site, whichever comes first.
