I’m trying to find an audio book of a popular book series. But when I start looking, I only found one of the audio books of a trilogy. (looking through the links in the megathread/wiki)
I’m not sure why the 2nd and 3rd audiobook of the triligy can’t be found, it should be popular enough that someone would’ve share it. It came out like a decade ago.
I found all 3 books (like the text-only book), but I’m kinda annoyed I can’t find the audio books.
Can’t finish off ancient discoveries nor find Ellie & jools
Yeah, mostly regional content and other non-English content
Yeah, older media (especially audiobooks) can be hard to find. Sometimes Anna’s Archive has it, but other times it feels nearly impossible.
There are also some serial/daily radio drama releases that can be hard to find. There was one in particular that I spent about a week looking for, until I finally found someone who had a compiled version.
Have you tried audiobookbay?
Lol I saw the https error and I just assumed the site was a dead link.
Why do they not have https? Isn’t Let’s Encrypt free? 🤔
But anyways, I think I found them, its torrenting now.
Thanks!
Wired when I visit it, it has. Just in case you have the wrong domain, audiobookbay .lu is the official domain.
Uhh they do have https.
Sure youre downloading from the right place?
audiobookbay[dot]is right on the megathread/wiki
I refreshed Tor circuit 3 times, same result.
Using ProtonVPN (paid) have the same result.
I’m not gonna attempt it on my real IP for obvious reasons.
I think its fine either way, it’s not like a .mp3 file has a high malware threat. (But I definitely would not run any .exe .apks from an unsecured connection tho.)
audiobookbay .lu is the official site.
Somebody needs to fix the megathread
The megathread is on the wiki. Anyone here can do it.
Wonder why that mirror doesn’t. Audiobookbaydotlu has https
Haven’t been able to find a copy of Big Shark by Tommy Wiseau.
Yes
A full archive of the Japanese TV show Supreme Skills. I can find bits and pieces but I don’t think I even have one complete season.
S02E02 is available on BTN, with a bounty on S01.

1994-11-01: Mean Fiddler Club, London by The Black Crowes. Had it forever ago now lost. It bugs me.
There’s a game demo we got on one of those demo disks that I played for ages, The Flying Doughman, like a puzzle platformer. I would think I imagined it if my brother didn’t remember it too, but from my searches it seems like it’s become lost media
Is this what you’re looking for?
Ahh no way that’s it! I don’t strictly trust the exe this site downloads though, and running it sandboxed just brings errors. But my word those screenshots take me right back

Speaking generally, repair/Haynes manuals for vehicles and home appliances (the ones that exist ofc). Some are out there, but I almost never find the one I want.
I’ve definitely had trouble finding specific books. There’s a popular book about the local climate here which is only available in print. There is a copy uploaded to archive.org, somebody scaned the whole book in, but it’s unavailable for download or check out.
Have you checked archive.org? Or your local library systems?
Also, there are some books which don’t have audiobooks that I’ve wanted to listen to. The Microsoft edge browser has a read to me mode which is really good. If you can find a book in text form, you can sometimes listen to it that way. I’ve actually converted ePub files into text files just for this purpose.

Text to speech vs an actual human professional reading it is like night and day.
I haven’t tried super hard, but season 5 of Tim and Eric’s Aweseome Show Great Job is the only one I can’t get. I found one torrent, but there are no seeders.
S01-05 is on BTN.
Some lost JAV. Specifically some of Kaho Shibuyas. Haven’t been able to complete that collection yet. VRs and some older videos that the publisher doesn’t even exist anymore. I’d pay even. But until I visit an old DVD shop in Japan they are lost to the Internet.
Thankfully the stuff I’m interested in is very easy for the most part. It’s rare for me to struggle with finding something.
I want to try WolfQuest but I ain’t spending $20 on it unless I can try it to see if I’d play it more than 10 minutes. I can’t even find a key for it on something like G2A, let alone a torrent or otherwise illegal method of obtaining it.
You can refund within 2 hours of gameplay on steam.
They’ll even refund after two hours of your reason is good enough (like say a patch broke the game)
