My sister has an Iphone and I put the Audible app on it and logged in so she can listen to my books. She's my sister and I trust her implicitly, to the extent that I have some money in her name, but I won't give her any of my passwords because that can breed distrust. The Audible app on the Iphone doesn't allow making purchases.

As for that being dishonest and against Audible's TOS, I called them and asked if that was okay before I did it and I was told it was fine. I value my connection with Amazon. I depend on them and I don't want to do anything to risk it.

At the time that I did this I had hundreds of audiobooks in the account connected to Amazon. Since then i've bought probably a hundred more books with large discounts because I've also bought the Kindle book. I get the audiobook also if it's one I think my sister will enjoy.

Sharing books with family is not dishonest. It's simple decency. Amazon and Audible recognize that to the extent that publishers allow them to.
