If anyone cares to know, I figured out that I must not have done the steps necessary, earlier, to be a real member at Audiobooks.com. Just for kicks, I clicked on a "Start Free Trial" button on one of their webpages. Then I got a webpage letting me know that it had been successful. I've got one free credit showing in my account, and everything!

So . . . . I'm wondering if it is even necessary to use a code to get the free one-month trial with a free audiobook. It seems like I just did it--there was no evidence that they still had SWIMGUIDE connected with me, anymore. On this webpage, Audiobooks.com seems to offer that free trial without the necessity of using a code. I quote:
1 Audiobook Every Month!
Get Your First Book Free
Listen to your first audiobook free
Save a lot with exclusive member discounts
Free apps for iOS and Android devices
Cancel anytime, no strings attached
$14.95 a Month After Free Trial

There's nothing about needing any code. Is that what it sounds like to you guys?

BTW--after I signed up, the "your account" webpage showed up. It had the cancel link that I couldn't find before. That probably occurred because I am now a full-fledged member, where I wasn't before. Imagine that, you have to be a member in order to cancel your membership.

So, I'm going to give a try to the suggestions that two or three of you made, to see if I can listen to one of their audiobooks without using Android or Apple iOS.
