I am always on the lookout for legal sources for obtaining audio drama. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Focus on the Family is temporarily offering many of their audio dramas at reduced prices. They are a Protestant organization but their audio dramas can be enjoyed by people of all faiths. When they had a similar sale last year I purchased their version of “a Christmas Carol” as well as their dramatized adaptations of the Narnia books. The production values, acting and music are excellent. Their adaptation of “a Christmas Carol” was extremely well-done and I found it to be very moving. These dramatizations can be purchased either on CD or as MP3 digital downloads. The digital downloads should be playable in any device or software capable of playing MP3 files, such as a Victor Stream or software such as VLC Media Player. I have successfully played them using Voice Dream Reader on my iPhone. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>It should be stated that this site uses an accessibility overlay.
