Customer comments on this selection.
 This Was a Requested Gift
My daughter wanted this for Christmas. It is taking a very long time to download to her IPod, but she seems thrilled to have it and can't wait to use it on her walks or while driving.
 Great Buy!
Mine just came in the mail yesterday. There are 6 mp3 cds in paper sleeves in a small box. The cds played fine on my truck's stereo which can read mp3 cds.
Another reviewer commented on the audio quality. I found the quality good, especially better than some mp3s I had downloaded years ago. Sometimes there is a little change in volume going from chapter to chapter, but it is hardly noticable. Is not cd quality by any stretch. The mp3 files are encoded at 80 kbps, which is plenty for this type of narration. I think you have to bear in mind that Scourby recorded these tracks decades ago.
For the price, it is hard to beat. You have the entire KJV Bible (that's over 70 hours of audio) ready to put on your mp3 player, listen to on your computer, or play in a mp3 capable car stereo. This is a bargain compared to the audio cd edition which has 60 cds.
no issues with audio
Entire old and new testament, ready to be copied to your mp3 player. Great audio and narration, very clear and consistent quality throughout. Unlike the other reviewer here, I found no issues with audio on any of the cds; audio is as perfect as I could have hoped. Sounds great on portable players or piped thru the home stereo.
I should add my interest is purely academic, and Scourby's narration serves that purpose well; he is dramatic enough to not be monotone, but not so over the top that you feel preached at.
 Wonderfully narrated, but flawed audio.
To have the complete KJV Bible on a 6 MP3-CD set is just amazing when you see that it can be bought for less than $20. Alexander Scourby's narration is brilliant. Audiophiles will not be satisfied with the audio quality of the recordings, however, as they are sometimes uneven from chapter to chapter (e.g. sound level and quality dramatically changing from chapter to chapter).
For the money, I rate this as a strong buy.
Make sure that your intended playback device can play MP3-CDs, as not all older players can.
