Question...
Anyone familiar with Audible.co.uk, the audiobook section of Amazon? Is it worth becoming a member?
I'm the kind of person who enjoys physically owning books, CDs, DVDs etcetera, but I also like the portability of downloads. It's much, much trickier to copy a ripped audiobook to your MP3 player than it is to copy over a download version of it...
I'd like to build up a proper collection of audiobooks from the Who-verse and others (I used to daydream over the 'No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency' CDs in Borders...), I'm just a little light on shelf space. But I'm also a little wary about signing up to a subscription service - even temporarily.
