Dear Ven. Dhammadarsa,
Suttareadings.net has (as I recall) around 30-40 audio suttas in
their collection, and they stopped producing new suttas in 2006. As one
of the readers for audtip.org, I've generally tried to avoid reading
suttas that I know exist on suttareadings.net or Ven. Anandajoti's
http://www.ancient-buddhist-texts.net/Audio/AU-index.htm, especially
longer suttas. A few of the shorter suttas were duplicated
unintentionally in some cases, in other cases intentionally to feature a
different English translation from the Pali than the ones in existing
audio suttas.
Since the time of the original message quoted, we've purchased the
audtip.org domain name and the ".com" versions are obsolete.
http://www.audtip.org/
is our main site.

wip.audtip.org
(works in progress - being proof listened)

pl.audtip.org
proof listening discussion forum

We have a podcast every saturday featuring an English audio sutta, one
can subscribe by clicking on the orange square RSS icon on the bottom
left hand column of http://www.audtip.org/

I'm going to be out of contact with the world in July and August of
2011, so if anyone is trying to reach me, I'll be back Sept 1. 2011.
We've been focusing on English readings, but we'd love to have
volunteers join to add Pali readings, Spanish, Thai, German, French,
Chinese, etc. The Dhamma is an oral tradition, it only seems right there
should be audio versions of the Tipitaka in every language.

-Frank
