I finally cancelled my account in January of this year--Since I've been getting books from the library, my Audible library had steadily been increasing with books I haven't listened to yet. I still have many hours of Audible books that I haven't listened to yet, but am slowly whittling it down. I don't know if I'll ever join again, because although they have good deals now I'm able to download a lot of the books I like to listen to from my local libraries.

We must have joined around the same time because I'm on that same "legacy" plan (got my Rio 500 for free). I have around 200 books (my book parts are in the 500's). Very few of them have I given up on and not listened to. Right now I'm re-listening to Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series in order (I hadn't listened to them in order before).

I'm another who is in traffic a lot and listen to books to keep me sane. I'll be an Audible member as long as I'm able to stay a legacy member.
