Audible: Audio Book Service From Amazon
Posted: Mon Jan 21, 2013 12:35 am
I'm a fan, but I'm not sure how much I like the pricing structure.
For $15 or so per month, you get one credit, and no discounts on other books. You can use the credit on anything though, and I think it defaults to the highest priced item in your cart, which is good.
I got a bunch of stuff from the Harvard Business Review and some other geek stuff for business for like $33. Something like 25 hours worth of audio.
If you're curious, I think that the best download I've listened to so far has to be the Steve Jobs thing from HBR. Say what you will about the guy, but the guy was incredible from an innovation, marketing and overall business point of view.
Overall, I'd probably give it a "meh plus" on a scale of "nfw-> maybe-> meh-> we're good".
Easy to sync to iTunes and put on your iPhone or iPod, listen to on your computer etc. Good for driving around.
