I really like Audiobookbay for discovering new books, but if I'm searching for something specific it is a bit annoying to navigate with their sometimes broken search and the vague categorization. Seeding is also sometimes sparse, especially with older uploads..

Does anyone know good alternatives? There doesn't seem to be an audiobook category in the megathread (yet) ;)

I've never tried to get into a private tracker, but if it's that good I'm definitely down to give it a shot!

It's definitely the best for books and audiobooks. The interview is easy, they ask you about the rules, just have them up in another window and repeat them back to them verbatim, don't try and get cute and rephrase them. They are really just checking that you read the rules.

Seeding is easy (3 days) and if you continue to seed you can purchase ratio very easily with the points.

I will say this though, it's a very WHOLESOME community. And if you participate in community stuff, you will be forced to be WHOLESOME as well. Personally, I usually just keep my head down and torrent and don't participate in forums / chat much.

Thanks for the info! An "interview" process makes me nervous.

It shouldn't. Like I said, they basically just want you to regurgitate the rules to them so they can make sure you've read them. You can even just have them open on another page. It's basically an open book test.
