VN Boards Archive

[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	$55.93 for just A Game of Thrones, $228.29 for the whole series. Apparently I can sign up to the service for $15 a month and get them cheaper, but no thanks. This is why people pirate stuff. -----signature----- (none)

	i think the $15 a month service gives them to you for free but you can only download like 1 or 2 a month? edit: and yeah that's why. i use audible to listen to clips to see if i can tolerate the reader and if i can, i just use an alternate method of acquisition. -----signature----- "Cao is really an asexual cricket from outer space" - Bernion "I just wish you had man bits" - ShalisR "i'll be your dirty ignorant redneck if you will be my drugged out cripple bitch" - shaggynuts24 "again, I'm stupid" - Brandun

	I think that is true for some titles, but for Fire and Ice series it looked like it dropped the price to $8 each with 1 credit and free with 2 credits. Still not willing to sign up to a monthly payment for them. -----signature----- (none)

	honestly, if i enjoyed more narrators, i'd pay $15 a month for them. i just can't stand the way 99.999999999999% of them read and it ruins the book for me. the harry potter guy was good and spike doing dresden is good and i think that's about the only people i've found i can stand listening to. -----signature----- "Cao is really an asexual cricket from outer space" - Bernion "I just wish you had man bits" - ShalisR "i'll be your dirty ignorant redneck if you will be my drugged out cripple bitch" - shaggynuts24 "again, I'm stupid" - Brandun

	56 dollars for an audio book? WTF? I haven't ever gotten into audio books, but that is just outrageous and I would never pay that much for any audio book. -----signature----- ooOooo oOoOO OOo

	Been a member of Audible for years, well worth the money! I have paid a mere fraction for the extensive library I have accumulated. If you are an audiobook fan, the only reason not to have a membership is if you didn't know. Now you know! -----signature----- Fare thee well VN, Vini, Vidi, Vici!
