I used to use audible solely. Their incredibly high prices drove me away. Their subscription is stupid in my mind. To me it’s just a way to make users forget so they pay for another month. I’ve been using hoopla for the past 6 months and love it. It’s free with a library card.
- igotsideas 9y agoSame story here. I haven’t had to buy an audiobook for a year cause the library always has what I want.
- tinymollusk 9y agoI tend towards fairly dense nonfiction like Scale (finished yesterday). That's nearly 20 hours at 1x playback, which the effective price was $15 w/ my membership. I find a huge amount of value for the effective $1-2 per hour I end up paying, even before considering the no-thought-required return policy and pro-rating the cost from multiple listens. YMMV, but I consider my audible subscription some of the best value I receive for my money.
