Anyone here doing audiobook work through ACX?
If so, are you doing the hourly finished audio payment or the royalty share rate?
Just curious about this company and don't know much about it yet.

The company is actually Audible. And the benefits/risks of doing per hour vs royalty share have been discussed ad nauseum here. Check the archives.

If you do a search for "royalty" in the archives, ignore references to Philip.

Todd, I'm going to help you out a bit without re-inventing the proverbial ACX wheel.
First of all, yes, I am doing work through ACX. Feel free to e-me directly or call me and we can chat all about it.
Next, I did some forum searching and here are some threads that carry, to one degree or another, some details about working with ACX:
