What follows is a list of the complaints I have addressed with audible (phone calls 12/10/2005 at least five times, over 1/2 hour on hold each time listening...
I did not feel that Golden glamorized the art of the geisha at all. What I found most interesting, however, was that the book was written by a man, but from...
I'm surprised that there is so much interest in ebooks among audible listeners. I used to like the concept of ebooks, but if I am going to read text I'd...
Yes! I want my virtual reality glasses. (but not the headaches) Before I subscribed to the Audible New York Times, when I commuted to Manhattan from New...
What sets this reader apart from previous attempts is the use of e- ink - a new way of rendering the text which makes it more of a "print on paper" reading...
As my sister-in-law would say "tell us what you really think" <grin> Seriously, all of your complaints are valid. There is no reason for the silliness that is...
