First Jim Dale then Stephen Fry. The Title is - Jim Dale Vs Stephen Fry (Final Scean Between Harry Potter and Voldemort in Deathly Hallows) Here is a link, but I'm not sure it will work - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJobfh62WAo Very interesting to compare the two. I'm not sure which I like best. I think I like Dale's Harry better, but I like Fry's Voldemort. Pretty good either way. Also, hearing the audio books, does give you some sense of what the finale of the movies could have been if they had envisioned the movie differently. Just passing it along.

Geoff: You're right. It's quite fascinating. I agree that Fry's Voldemort is best but, with Harry, I also prefer Fry's version because his London accent comes out very clearly at crucial moments. Well worth a listen! Thanks for the link.

I think in some cases, Stephen Fry's voice is a little clear, which I appreciate, but at other times, Jim Dale is a bit more expressive. Does anyone one know if you run into 'Zone' problems with the UK Audio Books? I think each zone uses a slightly different copy protection, so you can't by cheap CD/DVD in China and play them in the US or the EU. But I also think, though I could be wrong, that the US and the EU are different zones. I guess I don't really have to worry about it, it's not like they are going to run out of audio books. Plenty of time to think about it.

DVDs are zoned, and yes, the US and the UK are in different zones (US in Zone 1, and the UK in Zone 2) which can cause problems (in many cases, quite solveable ones), but CDs are not zoned - they will play in any CD player. There can be Copyright restrictions that some retailers follow and so won't sell certain CDs to people in certain countries, but there are plenty of online retailers who do not observe those rules.

Geoff: I just checked. Amazon.co.uk lists both versions so I imagine that should be true of all Amazon outlets.
