Audiobook Community - new site

Hello all,
for those of you interested in audiobooks, this site might be something to investigate:
There will be more YA content available this summer as part of their "Sync" group.
=======================
"A social network for audiobook aficionados? Free downloads of YA titles
paired with classic listening? A chance to mingle with narrators who voice
your favorite titles? Audiobook Community is all this and more!

Developed & maintained by the AudioFile Magazine staff, Audiobook Community is an forum for audiobook listeners to discover audiobooks and connect with other fans as well as publishers, authors, and narrators.

Sync <http://www.audiobookcommunity.com/group/sync>, is the Audiobook Community's initiative to promote YA Literature. The top audiobook
publishers are providing two FREE downloads a week this summer, July 1 to September 1, 2010! Teens & other YA lit lovers can download, listen, & join the online conversation about the audiobooks. Public & school libraries can jump aboard the initiative by using the professionally-designed promotional materials that you'll be able to print from the Sync Tool Kit (not quite yet active!) - there's even space for your library to personalize the printables to include your logo or promote your collection with listen-alike lists."
