So: Yes, we can just put these public domain audio performances in with the other formats. That makes the job slightly more difficult: for pre-10K items, it would be best to go ahead and update them for post-10K. (Not 100% required, but it would be nice -- otherwise, it's leaving a mess for someone to clean up in the future. Remember that the etext?? directories do *not* have subdirectories, making the post-10K structure much more suitable for multi-file audio eBooks.)
Hello. Why not just add an extra zip file with the individual mp3 files? Not neat, but it would work. Just take the base etext name and add -mp3.zip to the end. That only adds one extra file. The problem of course is that you're stuck downloading everything. Is there any reason why there can't be subdirectories in the etext dirs? That way you could have one big zip file with mp3 files and one subdirectory with them individually available for download. Yes, it's still a mess but would get us by until all the ebooks are reposted.
These things are possible, of course, but would be inconsistent with our other holdings. I'd rather be consistent, for many reasons. -- Greg
