I was considering signing up for an Audible account. I'd never heard of Libby but it looks great, I will be using that instead. Thank you!
Thanks for the tip on Libby. I tried Audible on iOS for a while and found the UX too annoying. I can’t remember specifics but in general I remember it was annoying to use with AirPods while using my phone for other things. Felt like it needed to learn some lessons from Apple Music or Spotify
I do like using Libby for books that don't have a long hold list and those that are very short. I absolutely hate wasting an Audible token on a 2 or 3hr book, I'll drop a token on something like a 51hr Tom Clancy book or just books I'm too impatient to wait weeks for.
My library has a crappy selection though. Not Hardly even worth even checking if they have a book, because they won't.
I live in California, where I can get a card for the SF and LA public libraries, in addition to those where I live. I'm sure it's not that way for everyone...
