You're reading too much into my post. I was just citing an example of that last scenario. Shoppers come in many flavors. I happen to be a $2.99 variety, so I'm not a typical buyer. Others will pay the moon to get the book they want; I won't. To each his own.

I use anything that costs $2.99 or less to get an audiobook. Since this series never goes on sale, I have to rely on promos that range in price from free to $2.99 per credit to get the books. These promos more than likely come out of Audible's advertising budget, hence they're not true purchases. Without these promos or Whispersync deals, my buying at Audible would come to a screeching halt; even if it means leaving a series uncompleted.
