If anyone is interested in trying
www.audible.com please feel free to say that you were referred by me. : ) My screen name is ricforney3. I will get a free month of membership if someone that was referred by me stays on for 3 months.
You can purchase books from audible without joining a Listener Plan and still receive discounts off of MSRP, but by becoming a monthly customer you get 1 or 2 book credits depending on your plan that you can use to buy an expensive book.
