(?#english only)\bh[öo]e?rspi?ele?
(?#english only)\baudi?oboek
(?#english only)\bh[öo]rbuch
(?#english only)\blivre\W+audio\b
(?#english only)\bund\W+der\b

Just stick these (one line at a time) into whatever reject list you're using to filter audiobook posts.
Note the comment sections - I find these very useful, when looking at accept/reject patterns and thinking (OK, what the heck does that one do?)

I've also found (?#tmp) very useful in marking short term accept/reject patterns that I expect to get rid of in a couple of days.

Quade - if this is too close to mentioning content, please just delete - thx!

I'm torn. It's close to the line but, not really close enough for me to act. I'll just leave it.

Well, I was torn about posting it - but how do you post regexes that are useful to other folks without saying, at least in general, what they're for?

How about if we take it down in a week?

I wouldn't worry about it. They could be public domain I guess.
