It was extremely annoying; I'd paid only $2 for a first rental offer, so I just plodded along with it, but I'd've been very angry to pay full rental price for that kind of erratic listening experience.

Audible's catalog is padded with a lot of Audible Studios books--like all the Kindle First books that they are turning into audiobooks. Most of the time I can find what I want at Downpour, but Audible's price may be better because of Whispersync pricing--so I buy at Audible.
I downloaded a couple of free rentals; then never got around to listening to them. It's a feature I'll never use as long as I have libraries at my disposal.

Whispersync pricing is Audible's biggest attraction for me.
