You can order a bunch of old radio shows on CD in MP-3 format at 
great prices at www.OldRadioFun.com .  I bought their whole sci fi 
programs selection.  They have newscasts, drama, kids, and a whole 
bunch of other stuff.  Visit their site and enjoy.  One caveat:  You 
need an MP-3 capable player to play them, but they have about 50 
programs on each CD for around $7.00 ea.  They are running a special 
on the sci fi stuff that I think ends today or tomorrow.  I got my 
portable player at China Mart for under $20.00 and a cassette adaptor 
so I can listen to my favorite programs while I drive.
