I'm sure that there are a number of us who have posted sound files to our Web sites, so it may be possible to listen to each other without having to pay the U.S. Post Office a cent.
I'd also suggest, if you're generally interested in hearing some other baritones who haven't yet made it to the Met, Covent Garden, Wiener Staatsoper, etc., that you do a little Web surfing. There are a lot of Web pages out there for "up and coming" singers, and you might want to check out some of their online sound files. I do this sometimes myself, and not too long ago "discovered" three singers who I'm eager to hear more from, based on what I heard on their websites (visit my "favourite singers" page, and you'll find a linked page devoted to these "want to hear more from..." singers).
There are also some Websites of vocal competitions that include online sound files (MP3s, RealAudios, etc.) of past winners, such as the Lotte Lehmann Foundation's CyberSing, and the International Tchaikovsky Competition. Yet another place on the Web to hear other young (and not so young) singers.
