I've been seeding the torrents that I download since the old days of Limewire, but I've always download and re-shared by seeding.
But a few months ago I couldn't find a set of audiobooks I'd been looking for with the original narrators from the 90s.
I finally found a set on CD on eBay and coverted those to mp3 and loaded them on my phone, but it occurred to me that others might also be looking for a complete version of the series too and wanted to share that media.
Apologies if it's an obvious answer that I somehow missed.

Out of interest, what's the series? (Didnt answer the question as the post an hour ago covers it nicely)

[–] [email protected] 32 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (7 children)

It's the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett with original narrators (Stephen Briggs and Nigel Planer).
Audible has been replacing them with new narrators, and they switch narrators several times every few chapters in each book. There's still some of the originals around on audible but they're slowly replacing them one at a time. It was difficult to find a complete collection and all in good quality from torrent sites before.
I've ripped them directly from the CDs so it's (mostly) great quality with the exception of a few that were converted from older tapes. And all the extras like the science of discworld books and a collection of short stories by Pratchett too.

Wait was the whole series available on audiobook? This is a great project

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It is the whole complete series on audiobook with the original British narrators, I've successfully created the torrent and now I'm just waiting to hear back from TG for permission to upload.

Nice can you send me the link when you make the torrent?

Sure thing, it'll be a few hours yet though when I get home from work.
