How to Download Books on CD

With the hectic schedules that people keep these days, keeping up with reading books sometimes is a hard thing to do. With books on CD, however, you can keep on your reading without actually taking the time to sit down and read. These books can be listened to in your car's CD player, or they can be downloaded to your computer and transferred to your digital music player so you can listen to them on the go. The good news is that because books on CD are simply audio CDs, they can be downloaded to virtually all music management software--including iTunes and Windows Media Player.
