winnie carey"Remember playback position tells iTunes and the iPod to make the file
bookmarkable. Skip when shuffling keeps the spoken word track out of your random
music mixes, where it would probably interrupt the mood.
Repeat this process for the each CD in the audio book, until you have
imported all of the CDs.
Sync to your iPod, and enjoy a great book!" -

Avinash MeetooThe problem with audiobook CDs is they cannot be played (directly) on an iPod. Although importing CDs is easy to do with iTunes, it is optimized for music CDs. It can take quite a bit of trial and error — mostly error — to come up with a recipe that works

A great source for free audiobooks is the public library, where they are often available on CD
-
each CD usually has dozens of tracks on it, which makes it a nightmare to manage on the small screen of an iPod
-
This import process attempts to reduce the amount of manual input, while also making sure that the track information is highly usable on an iPod.
-
Select all of the CD’s tracks, and choose Join CD Tracks from the Advanced menu:
-
This will consolidate the many tracks on the CD into one, which will make it much easier to manage when the tracks are copied to your iPod
-
In the CD Info dialog that appears, fill out the information you know about the audio book.
-
Choose “Books & Spoken”, and click OK.
-
Select it, and press Command-I to do a Get Info on the track, and switch to the Info tab:
-
Switch to the Options panel, and check both the Remember playback position and the Skip when shuffling checkboxes:

great source for free audiobooks is the public library, where they are often available on CD. And there are other ways to borrow audiobooks on CD, such as Kitabe.com and SimplyAudiobooks.com, services that are similar to Netflix, but for audiobooks. The problem with audiobook CDs is they cannot be played (directly) on an iPod. Although importing CDs is easy to do with iTunes, it is optimized for music CDs. It can take quite a bit of trial and error — mostly error — to come up with a recipe that works well, producing audiobook files that are as easy to use on an iPod as the books you might get from Audible.com, and are reasonable in size and quality. I’m going to save you some time, and share the recipe that I’ve come up with. First you will want to ensure that your import settings are optimal for audiobook and spoken word. See Optimal iTunes Import Settings for Audiobooks for instructions for how to configure iTunes for importing your audiobooks. Then you can move onto the next steps, where you actually import the CDs.
