I will be recording some audio books that will be made available
online as MP3 or WAV downloads. Thus, I am looking for the highest
quality USB microphone available. One that produces a clear voice
without a cheap "hollow" sound or anything like that.

At the same time, I am not wanting to spend an arm and a leg on
equipment so any suggestions on what mics to look into or what kind of
options I have would be appreciated.

AFAIK there is no such thing as a USB microphone. Certainly not a
quality one.

What computer are you using? What does it presently have as a
soundcard? Is Firewire available as well as USB?





There are several, some combined with small ipod-like devices. Try googling
USB and microphone.
