    Never heard of this one before. Andrea enjoys audio books while she's
    at work (summer job cleaning walmart). Will check this out with her
    later. Had a quick look but it was only showing me anti racist
    selections. LOL Obviously I need to explore more.

    Libro is the only service that is designed to support independent booksellers.

    Amazon and Audible can seem competitively priced, but you're tied to an
    app, the files are not drm-free, and you can't suspend the membership and accumulate your credits.

    Libro doesn't need an app (although they provide one) and you can move
    your files to any device that supports mp3. I'll have some files on a cd-
    rw disc or my ipod for the car, and then I'll switch to a usb drive in a media player connected to my tv if I want to lay down to listen.

    Libro offers a bonus 3 books when switching over from another audiobook provider.

    You can put a temporary pause/hold on the membership and still retain existing credits.

    Check it out.

    Very cool. We will be installing it on Andrea's phone when we get
    home from the woods.
