You can burn it to a CD, put it into your MP3 player or even turn it into a cassette tape if you like. The great thing about downloading is the speed. The typical audio book will take you between 15 and 60 minutes to download a full length novel. This varies and if you have dial-up may take much longer. Different stores also have different speeds at which you can download from them. The bigger the store the faster the download rate usually is.

You need to make sure you are downloading from a legitimate site that is an authorized dealer of audio books or you might actually be stealing them. Stay away from very small sites that aren't well known unless you know someone who has used them before. Never install any type of program either unless you read the entire "fine print" and make sure there is nothing harmful or unwanted in it. You really don't want to get it illegally because you may get a fine if by some chance the publishing company finds out you have it.

Most sites will let you listen to samples before you pay and download an audio book. You don't want to listen to someone with a terribly boring voice read you a 1400 page novel. Make sure your book has a reader you like to listen to. Many times celebrities will read audio books.

The various sites usually offer a pay-per-download option and some might want you to commit to a monthly fee. Depending on how often you listen to audio books, the monthly fee sites typically have special offers and lower prices that you can take advantage of. Some download sites also cater to specific genres so you will need to dig around and find the best site for you. You don't want to begin paying a monthly fee with an online site only to find out later they don't have one of your favorite genres of book. People's tastes vary so you have literally thousands of options available to you on the internet.

Before you give out your credit card information, make sure the site is known and maybe has a FAQ section if you have any questions. Many sites have a testimonials area so you can hear what previous users thought of the site.
