The Steven Kent book is good reading. Depending on the performance, I suppose it could be good listening, but it seems like it would be a tad dry. I've had it in my Audible list for years but haven't tried it yet for what that's worth. :-/

They're typically just MP3 downloads, no DRM. Some of these are also available in FLAC format, but that's a larger file.

Personally I find that less useful than Audible because there's no easy way to save your place on mobile. I was considering an Overcast "subscription" (it's just a few bucks) to unlock that kind of functionality in my podcast player for external files.
