Whispersynch
I have a question about Whispersynch. I understand I buy the Kindle book, then am offered the Whispersynch book at a reduced rate compared to the Audible book. But, what I don't get is: are all books in a series suppose to be available through Whispersynch? I just checked Terry Pratchett's Discworld series on Amazon. There are a total of 40 book. But only 20 show that they are available for Whispersynch? Or am I missing something? Do they offer more as time goes by? Or do they disappear from the available Whispersynch, in which case I had better buy right now? (early Christmas)
Just wondering if there is any rhyme or reason to what is available and what isn't.
Thanks!

All books are not necessarily available. If you can find a complete series, grab it soon; because sometimes books are taken off the Whispersync catalog. A "here today, gone tomorrow" thing. In the end, I bet it has to do with the publisher's and pricing as to why some are there and some aren't.

Ok, I'll grab what is available asap. Hope they eventually get the other 20 for Whispersynch.
