After requesting a title be made available at one of my local libraries, I received an email from them informing me the book was available as an audiobook with their 'OneClickDigital' service and included instructions for downloading the software and setting up an account. I'd never even heard of it but decided to give it a try.
Although not without its flaws, OneClickDigital does have some amazing features that I'd love to see adopted by OverDrive...
1) History tab. Shows all books previously checked out w/date of check-out.
2) Choice of check-out time (1 to 14 days).
3) Early return. I haven't actually used this feature yet, but nice to know it's there for audiobooks.
The service is for audiobooks only and getting around the website is painfully slow (more so when logged in for some reason), but I've found some titles not available at my main digital library, so pretty happy about that.
Anyone else use it? Of my 3 local libraries (one county and two city), only one offers it as an alternative to OverDrive.
