Craniac pointed us to several audiobooks sites, including AudioBooksForFree.
Can you make this sample play? I don't see any button to click.
"For free" is... well, they're only free in very low audio quality. Rather dubious affair really.
... Wow, that site is outdated... they deliver all the books on an iPod (a little down the page). Great idea. But too expensive, and the iPod featured is from 2004!
Thanks to Tommy for pointing to BooksShouldBeFree. It collects mainly audiobooks from libravox, and seems quite useful.
... Except that the books are divided into a file per chapter. I may have to use software to collect them into one file per book.
The "podcast" option puts a podcast (look for Librivox) in your iTunes podcast section, and then you must download each chapter by clicking on it there.
I have downloaded Moby-Dick. Holy crap, it's over a day long!
Update:
NYT has this article.
It refers for instance to this resource on the Internet Archive site.

Oops, I just pulled that one out of Delicious where I must have just dumped it for later reference.
