    Use Libby, with your library card. Unlimited audiobooks and works for almost any library.

      No, no it doesn’t. For a start I am not in the US so it isn’t Libby and secondly I tried the library card / app route and the selection is woefully shite.

      It doesn’t even have what would be the most popular books for example say Lord of the Rings. It has a seemingly random selection. On top of that they have minimal licenses for the books so if you do manage to find something interesting you want to listen to someone may have already “rented it out” via the app and so you’d have to wait for them to “return” it before you can listen.

      Library cards and apps (at least where I am) are one of the poorest choices available and that is saying something going up against the utter dogshit that is audible.
