YouTube Success in 5 Steps: Five Steps. No Limits. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 171min
A growing number of YouTubers are scoring six-to-seven-figure paychecks, studio development deals, A-list Hollywood agents, book and record deals, and more because they've harnessed the power of web video production, distribution, and monetization. Comedian-gamer Felix Kjellberg (aka PewDiePie) launched the most subscribed to YouTube channel of all time and made $7.4 million in 2014 for his expletive-filled video game commentaries. Not too shabby for someone who quit college and sold hot dogs to afford to buy a computer. Actress-writer Awkward Black Girl Issa Rae was working odd jobs and contemplating business school when her web show went viral. What followed was a Shorty Award, a development deal with HBO, and representation by United Talent Agency. Dissed by traditional media, hip hop violinist Lindsey Stirling found a following via YouTube, racked up hundreds of millions of views, a deal with Lady Gaga's manager, a sold-out European tour, and an album that debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Former substitute teacher Harley Morenstein (ask Epic Meal Time) racked up over 800 million views, a partnership with Taco Bell Canada, and a TV show on A+E-owned FYI. Oh, and the Sauce Boss stars in Kevin Smith's 2016 release Moose Jaws and has an estimated net worth of $6 million. Video blogger Jenna Marbles signed with CAA, got her own Madame Tussauds wax figure, and even has her own line of dog toys. She's accrued nearly two billion video views and has more Instagram friends than Oprah Winfrey. Civilians are getting paid to create web video content, while iconic brands like Toyota, Lionsgate, and Macy's are shelling out big bucks for other people's videos. What makes those videos better than yours? Or are they? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jennifer Dorr. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/085584/bk_acx0_085584_sample.mp3.

Raised as close as brothers and living happy childhoods, neither one thinks of what can go wrong. But the unexpected deaths of both their fathers catapult their lives in two very different directions. Terry finds trouble with the law, while Mike lives his life racked with guilt and sadness. In her first book in four years, The Outsiders author S. E. Hinton gives listeners a gritty view of how one incident, one tragedy, affects two boys very differently, and changes their lives forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Vikas Adam.

Beggars and Choosers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 727min
In a future America strangely altered by genetic modifications, millions of ordinary people are supported by the efforts of handsome and intellectually-superior gene-modified humans.

The Sleepless have withdrawn from the rest of the race to an island retreat, from which they periodically release dazzling scientific advances. Most of the world is on the verge of collapse, overburdened by a population of jobless drones and racked by the results of irresponsible genetic research and nanotechnology. Will the world be saved?

Demon Rider: The Years of Longdirk: 1522 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 727min
All of Europe is ruled by the Khan, whose Golden Horde swept its conquering way across Europe in 1244. The Scottish outlaw Toby Strangerson, known as Longdirk, is ruled by an even harsher master. He is possessed by a "hob", a demon spirit murderous as a child although inherently neither good nor evil. Toby wants his freedom - and the spirit of the tyrant-demon Nevil, ensorceled in amethyst, can be traded for the exorcism of the hob. In order to make the exchange, though, Toby and his friend and ally Hamish must face the hexer Oreste on his own ground, in the dank and fetid dungeons of Barcelona, where souls are racked and tortured and destroyed on the relentless wheel of the Inquisition. ungekürzt.
