What about bookshare.org? If you provide them with proof of your disability you can have a $50.00 subscription per year and you can download up to 100 books in a Braille ready formatt or through various other outputs. Right now that's the only way I get e-books and they have most major title. Personally I like to call bookshare.org a kind of net flix for the blind because of their accessability to so many choices instantly. And you don't have to pay for each download.
