Oh, good grief. I guess if you go in knowing there will be ads in free or discounted Audible books that would be one thing. But, if you paid full price for a book and got ads in it, I don't think that would make you very happy.

Seems to be a trend with Amazon. I think they used to provide TV shows free of ads on Prime, now a lot of them (or all of them?) have been moved to FreeVee (with ads). Maybe I'm wrong on this, I don't watch many of the TV shows, but the ones I've looked at seem to have been moved to FreeVee.
