You have to send it to a Kindle device (or software) before you can get the WS deal.

I wasn't sure that I could post so many quotes. ha

Thanks for the great info, everyone.

I didn't include the information in my post, but . . .
1. I did download the books.
2. I think that I sent them to the Kindle Reader (or whatever the web-based reader is called). I did that once before and it worked that way.
I'm going to have to check on #2, to make sure that I actually did do it. I'm almost positive that I did, but I have to make sure.

I think that I tried on or before the 13th (when booklover6 last did the transaction). So, I don't think that Amazon/Audible changing their policy is a possibility.

I think that I'm going to try checking out, downloading, and sending one or more of the same books, that are not checked out by someone else now, and see what happens. I might try this before I do anything else. I do want to own the audio of the 5 books.

Anyway, stay tuned. I'm going to work through the matter, as I get snatches of time here and there. And, I'll let you know if I still can't get the thing to work.

And thanks, again, for your help.
