For my areas of expertise [...] Philosophy

I find it somewhat difficult to believe that you've maxed out your knowledge "philosophy" obtainable from audiobooks! But only somewhat, if you care to inform me that there is simply a terrible drought of philosophy audiobooks.

There is widespread rumor that the free days of finding good books, audiobooks, movies, and music on the internet are counted.

This comment is oddly prescient. Yesterday, I downloaded several books from libgen.info. Today, when I attempted to do so a bit more, I find that libgen.info is gone. library.nu and libgen.info were the best, or perhaps only decent book pirating websites. Now there is basically nowhere to get free pirated books online.

Edit: And now I find that this comment is premature; libgen.info is back up. Shocking scare, though.
Edit: And now I see that previous edit was premature; libgen.info is down again.
Edit: It is back up. I give up.
