Audible.com is a big hassle.

by reader12341, Dec 14 '11
This site is terrible. Their files do not work on enough devices and the search is not user friendly. I could waste a lot of time and money burning a 10+ hour audio book to cd just to burn it back to my computer just to transfer it to my Nook, but that's ...

Not an iTunes Alternative

by mr_robot, Dec 16 '10
I like the flexibility of playing music/video on multiple devices without having to register the device (or limiting the registrations I'm allowed).  So i'm a big fan of Amazon.com's MP3 downloads and just about anything outside of iTunes.  I ...

Great service if you're always "on the go"

by im2weasel, Oct 20 '10
Overall I think Audible is a great service if you enjoy reading, but don't have time to pick up a book. I used to drive 4 hours to visit a friend and during those long trips, I'd always bring an audiobook along to keep me entertained. I've also listened ...

Used to be adequately cheap but now double-charging and bother not worth savings

by tamalesam, Sep 11 '10
I have purchased 74 books from Audible over the past 5 years and recently their service has degraded too far.  Although they allow "unlimited" burning of CDs for my own use, they cripple that pledge by requiring use of a software that allows only 1 ...

Downloading Books from Audible takes forever, oh well.

by ljsc, Mar 05 '10
 Before you can fully appreciate the Audible experience there are a few phrases to familiarize yourself with. Don't worry about memorizing them all at once. A bit of repetition, of which you will have ample opportunity, and you will have perfect ...

The WORST website- ever.

by mathboy, Oct 01 '09
Audible's site is the worst web site ever created- period. Each click takes no less than a minute to render. A minute. Clicking more than one link from a page (so they show up in different tabs) causes the site to "time out". Having a large collection of ...

A great way to enjoy books when you don't have time to read

by jadiashadowcat, Sep 12 '09
I Have been a member of Audible for many years, and find it to be a very good value. I canceled and restarted several times due to changes in finances over the years, and i have never had any trouble from audible. In comparison the price is decent ...

Audible.com THE Source for Audio Books

by gamblin_man, Aug 07 '09
When I got my Kindle II there was a mention of Audible.com as a source for Kindle II audio books. The site had a special Gold membership at $7.49 a month for the first three months, changing to $14.95 a month after. A Gold member gets one audio book ...

Broad Selection, Beautiful Quality, and Bitter, Baffling Philosophies

by bethesdalily, Jan 05 '09
THE VICTORY OF VOCALIZATION      28 May 2008. My nerves taut, I waited for iTunes to open. It had never taken quite so long before-but then, perhaps I had never before been quite so impatient. If my little plan worked, I would ...

Considering I couldn't get in it was very poor!

by sueschmitt, May 09 '08
I have been trying for days to get on the home site of Audible.com. My brother's mother-in-law loves audio books and her birthday is coming up. I wanted to get some for her as a gift. My sister-in-law has a very long commute to her job and she also ...

Good Products, Priced Fairly, Good Customer Support

by fierykali, Jan 09 '08
I have used audible.com for about 4 years now. Keep in mind I was in my late 30's and had never used an MP3 Player in ANY form before. I have wondered what would happen to my books if I cancelled my subscription because they do say that if you buy them ...

Misleading ads are a big deterrent

by g_ross_key, Nov 27 '07
Audible provides a useful service to users of audio books. Unfortunately, their deceptive advertising practices place them in a highly suspect category in my mind. The first example of this is a web site I found via a search engine that identified itself ...
