Here's the links to the Librivox audiobooks I've converted to speex so far. Please leave a comment or email me if theres a book which you recommend I convert from [http://librivox.org/ here] or elsewhere. There's a selection of speex encoded books already [http://www.gutenberg.org/browse/categories/1 here], though they were done with an earlier version of the encoder. If anyone is interested the files here are 16000 Hz, Mono encoded at quality 1 vbr with speexenc version 1.2 beta. |

Interesting Link
Here's a audio interview that I've found quite interesting. It doesn't have to do with OLPC but it does mention a lot of the same things about education and technology. Link
Speex encoded audiobooks
Here's the links to the Librivox audiobooks I've converted to speex so far. Please leave a comment or email me if theres a book which you recommend I convert from here or elsewhere. There's a selection of speex encoded books already here, though they were done with an earlier version of the encoder. If anyone is interested the files here are 16000 Hz, Mono encoded at quality 1 vbr with speexenc version 1.2 beta. I'm not currently uploading individual files at the moment as I'm trying to make content bundles instead.
