When I used SWIMGUIDE and clicked "Apply," the system quickly accepted it.

Thanks for your info above.

Thanks. Not there for re-activations, so I'd have to create a new account, which I don't want to do.

There is a prominent "Play Now" option on the product page for an audiobook that I'm interested in. However, it only plays a sample. If I click on the "Download" button, I've got to choose to download the Apple or Android app. Maybe if I actually installed one of the apps (remember: I can't do that right now), then it would let me also stream it. Oh, Audiobooks' limited help file (just some FAQs, with answers, so far as I can tell) doesn't say anything about it.

I think you can keep playing it, at the end of the sample ...

ETA: This is the message you get if you have a credit and are signed in:

You have completed the sample, do you wish to continue listening to this audio book?<br />(This book requires 1 credit)

You can pick Back to Browsing or Continue - the latter purchases the book and the sample keeps playing.

Another tip - if you don't want to listen to the sample, but do wish to purchase, move the sample's time bar over to nearly the end and listen to the last few seconds, then the message above will display.

Also, from your library, you can listen on the web. I just continued the Asimov Foundation Trilogy, which picked up at 3:02, which was how long I had to listen before adding to my library.

I did download their app, somewhere (maybe on the ipad?) just to get a free audiobook a while back. I don't use it other than to download the MP3 and back up locally or to move to my small MP3 player to listen in the car.

I have a smattering of books over at audiobooks.com from when they were giving away daily freebies for a while, but when I am logged in, the books in my library only offer me the option to download to my device; I don't have any option to stream. The only box I see says Download Now. Books that are not in my library, however, do have Preview and Play Sample options. How are you able to stream?

Audible Daily Deal -- exp 23 May @ 11:59pm ET

$3.95 -- Look Again -- Lisa Scottoline/ Mary Masterson --> 9.5 hrs/ R-4.0 --> thriller

Whispersync: the Audible book is $3.95, if you own or borrow the Kindle ebook ($7.99)

When reporter Ellen Gleeson gets a "Have You Seen This Child?" flyer in the mail, she almost throws it away. But something about it makes her look again, and her heart stops - the child in the photo is identical to her adopted son, Will. Her every instinct tells her to deny the similarity between the boys, because she knows her adoption was lawful. But she's a journalist and won't be able to stop thinking about the photo until she figures out the truth. And she can't shake the question: if Will rightfully belongs to someone else, should she keep him or give him up?

She investigates, uncovering clues no one was meant to discover, and when she digs too deep, she risks losing her own life - and that of the son she loves.

Lisa Scottoline breaks new ground in Look Again, a thriller that's both heart-stopping and heart-breaking, and sure to have new fans and book clubs buzzing.

Nook Daily Find -- exp 23 May

$4.99 -- Cambodia Noir -- Nick Seeley/ multiple --> 9.0 hrs/ R-3.6 --> thriller

Whispersync: the Audible book is $4.49, if you own or borrow the Kindle ebook ($13.99)

A high-octane thriller with a heart-stopping conclusion about a mysterious American woman who disappears into the Cambodian underworld, and the photojournalist who tracks her through the clues left in her diary.

Phnom Penh, Cambodia: The end of the line. Lawless, drug-soaked, forgotten - it's where bad journalists go to die. For once-great war photographer Will Keller, that's kind of a mission statement: he spends his days floating from one score to the next, taking any job that pays; his nights are a haze of sex, drugs, booze, and brawling. But Will's spiral toward oblivion is interrupted by Kara Saito, a beautiful young woman who shows up and begs Will to help find her sister, June, who disappeared during a stint as an intern at the local paper.

There's a world of bad things June could have gotten mixed up in. The Phnom Penh underworld is in an uproar after a huge drug bust; a local reporter has been murdered in a political hit; and the government and opposition are locked in a standoff that could throw the country into chaos at any moment. Will's best clue is June's diary: an unsettling collection of experiences, memories, and dreams, reflecting a young woman at once repelled and fascinated by the chaos of Cambodia. As Will digs deeper into June's past, he uncovers one disturbing fact after another about the missing girl and her bloody family history. In the end, the most dangerous thing in Cambodia may be June herself.

Propulsive, electric, and filled with unforgettable characters, Cambodia Noir marks the arrival of a fresh new talent. Nick Seeley is an ambitious, wildly imaginative author and his enthralling debut explores what happens when we venture into dark places...when we get in over our heads...and when we get lost.
