Free audiobook downloads this weekend

  • Hi Steppenwolf. If you have java installed, their download manager downloads itself and starts automatically. If you don't have java installed you get directed to the java download site, but without any explanation of what you need to do. You need to download java and then install it before going back to the audiogo site. Their download manager will then open. Unfortunately that's all it did for me. It opened, it prompted for a download location, and then sat there with 0% downloaded until an error status appeared.

    With the zip download option I did finally get a message - though a very brief one. It said just "item not found". And same again with today's title. This is from boomer.j-tao.com - presumably just a download site that Audiogo use.

    Hi zander .... thanks for the suggestions. Tried google chrome instead of Internet Explorer, same result (i.e. nothing). I could try another browser but don't want to waste any more time on it. Waiting for customer services to open tomorrow.

    I had similar trouble yesterday with Tinker Tailor...neither method would work. Today I have had no problem with Our Kind Of Traitor using the Zip download option. The former is still showing as not found. I believe there is most likely a problem with it, it may well be a corrupt file and I have emailed Customer Services to explain. Hopefully get it sorted tomorrow.

    There's another thread on these audiodownloads over on the no-spend freebies board. And as that one seems to be generating a little criticism for duplicating info that's on the newspaper threads and on the DVD and CD threads, it might be best to stick with that one?

    It's at https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3491139 and has Monday's link and code.
