Audio Realms audiobooks
Anybody out there know what happened to Audio Realms? They offered a bunch of audiobooks free through Audiobooks.com around Halloween. Now their website, their own store (theaudiobookshop.com), and their Facebook page are gone. All of their titles have been removed from Audiobooks.com (which removed them from my library! ), though you can still buy them over at Audible.
Thanks, skinmaan |

Well, no new information but at least I wasn't the only one who noticed.

One of the biggest downsides with audiobooks.com. If they stop offering a book for any reason they remove it from the library of everyone who owns it. Unlike Audible with their audiobooks or most/all(?) of the major eBook retailers where they remove it from sale, but maintain a copy for those who already bought the title.
