SYNC (owned by
AudioFile) is going to announce their Summer 2014 program later this month. So it's time to prep the thread. Last year, they announced in April. Not sure why they're announcing earlier. Maybe they plan to expand the program? Who knows.

What is SYNC?
SYNC is a program that gives away two complete audiobook downloads–a current Young Adult title paired thematically with a Classic or Required Summer Reading title–each week to listeners ages 13+ while SYNC is in session each summer.

Unfortunately, there is some bad news to report.
Discussion was started in the Audiobook thread and can be continued either there or here; it matters not to me.

SYNC Titles Lost in iOS7 Update -- 07 Oct 2013
Our apologies to SYNC Listeners who have saved their SYNC titles in the OverDrive App on their Apple device.
The iOS7 update does indeed clear your OverDrive App library of titles. Because of the temporary nature of the SYNC titles (generously given to us for just one week by the audiobook publishers) the OverDrive suggestions for title restoration will not work for SYNC titles. There is sadly no way for us to restore those titles for you. The update compatibility was unanticipated and out of our hands.
Consider using this as an opportunity to borrow the SYNC selections from your library using OverDrive or to try audiobook download member services like Audible or Downpour.
Again, our apologies!
