Hasn't Audible done this for a long time already?

  You're right - I guess I'm thinking more of the Kindle business model (I was thrown off by all the Amazon references). With Audible, I believe you have to stream the books, but when I want to listen to an audio book, I usually don't have a reliable connection (e.g. road trips). It would be great if you could download the audio (even temporarily, much as I hate DRM) as part of the subscription. Since I'm now talking about a different model entirely, I'm afraid I'm well and truly off-topic. Sorry :)

    I did the Audible free trial for a month and you can download through the app instead of streaming. It's worth a try if you're looking for something like that.

    with Audible you have to download the files. You can only stream 50 mb of the book (about 3 hours) You only get 1 book a month with the base Audible subscription, but you get pretty heavy discounts on purchasing books. You also get to keep the audiobook.

  No, I pay $23 a month for two books, which I own, but there is no 'all you can eat' deal.
