I am a nonconformist and I don't want to use an Apple or Android device (just kidding--I've got an Android now, but it's got some kind of problem, that's bedeviling me, recognizing the additional memory that I installed, and I can't install any more apps on it. But you didn't care to know all of that.)
Though my Audiobooks.com account is now inactive, I can still listen to the many audiobooks in my Audiobooks.com library in any one of three ways:
  1. By streaming them online (from any device), while logged into my Audiobooks.com account, - so, you could do this, even though your Android device is misbehaving
  2. By downloading them to an Android or Apple device, where I can listen to them via the Audiobooks.com app, or
  3. By [reverse] sideloading the downloaded mp3 files (all of which are DRM-free) from my Android device to my computer, from which I can play and manage the audiobooks wherever, however I like

They've always replied to my emails promptly. One could, alternatively, phone or tweet them.
