How about a specific site for now? I'm presuming you have access to the
NLS Talking Books servers .., though I understand you might not be a
subscriber.

http://nlsbard.loc.gov

I have found using 'h' to go from book to book the easiest way to
quickly peruse their Recently Added Books and Magazines  listings,
switching to up/down arrow when I found a particular title interesting,
and to TAB to access the download link when I found a title I wanted.

PS: There's also a pecularity to this page where, after downloading a
title, navigating via 'h' ceases to work until the page is refreshed
(F5).

I'll write again when/if I find this on a public page.
