Major Upgrade to OverDrive Media Console

Of particular interest to us as audiobook listeners is the ability of this upgrade to sync content across all compatible devices. I checked out an MP3 audiobook from my library and tested the sync feature with three devices -- Nexus 7 v2, Fire HD 7, and iPod touch 4 -- and it works nicely. The audiobook must be downloaded on each device you wish to sync with.

You also need to set up an OverDrive One account (username, email, password) to use these features

Find and save libraries offering OverDrive media all in one place.
Sync progress in eBooks and audiobooks across devices.
Sync bookmarks across devices.

A bonus feature for iOS devices only is variable-speed playback -- .5x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2x.

More info is available here:
