I've said enough to the need for a gazillion apps to listen to audiobooks from various purveyors. Audible is necessary, as is OverDrive, and the Downpour app is fine and I like Downpour for its DRM-free content and its sales. I don't like the Hoopla app, but the content is free. That's where I draw the line. I have a Tantor library but the Tantor app is awful and since the audiobooks are DRM-free, it's not a problem. I did buy a Nook audiobook at one point and have yet to listen to it; once I'm done I'll never revisit the app. Kobo and Google are apps too far. I don't care how good the apps are nor how appealing the come-on; I just can't be bothered any more.
