I think that this post could be "legally" made on this thread, the non-fiction thread, and/or the Whispersync deals thread . . . .

The audiobook Wait, What?: And Life's Other Essential Questions, by James E. Ryan, was the Audible Deal of the Day a couple of days ago. The ebook, which appears to be the same edition (and how could there be a different edition of a speech, anyway?) is currently on sale for $1.99.

If you like ebooks, but not audiobooks, this might be for you. However, I envision someone who bought the 99 cent audiobook in the DoD wanting to buy this inexpensive ebook, too--especially if the two sync together.

I am 99.9% sure that that does happen--when you buy an ebook with Amazon, and then later the audiobook with Audible, or vice versa, the two will automatically sync together. You do not have to buy the two at the same time in order to get that benefit. If I am wrong about that, by all means, please make a post to that effect.

So, your total outlay for the deal would be only $2.98 ($1.99-ebook + $0.99-audiobook).

Here's the webpage at Amazon for the Wait, What? ebook.

Is there any way to liberate kobo audiobooks? I currently have them on my iPhone but Ild like a backup in my PC

edit - sorry just realised this is OT so I'll add that the current 2 for 1 audible sale is pretty good I've picked up two and am thinking about going back for more

I don't know if it's any different with an iPhone, but I just copy the Kobo audiobook files from my Android device to my PC and then add an mp3 extension. That's all there is to it.

Bottom line, this promo works even if you cancel your current membership just minutes before signing up for this one.
Indeed, thanks!! I'm doing the two offers in the reverse order. I did the one month one just now, and will look into the 2 month one in a month, after a vacation trip.

Does anybody else find their Wish List messed up right now? I can't get to page 1 for love nor money. Page 2 and 3, yes.

When I took the one month offer above, I searched for the next book in a series that I'm lining up. Looking at it, I could see that it was in my WishList -- but it was on that page that I cannot get to. I had to find the title again by hand, not using the WishList. Oh well -- I'll assume it's a temporary glitch.

Not working for me, it seems. When I click skinmaan's link I just get taken to the standard "restart your membership" normal price page.

It occurs to me that if you took advantage of these last few offers and got the coupons and gift card credits, your price per credit average must be getting close to zero. Let us know when you cross the line and Audible has started paying you to take books from them!

Audible is running a sweepstakes for a $300 coupon; you enter by adding a book to your wish list. I would guess that that might be a reason for the wish list being glitchy.

Ahh yes -- I wasn't a member then, so I ignored that. But now I'm a member for a few weeks (till I cancel). I'll go add a book to my WishList!

I cancelled yesterday. Using Koland's link I got 1 free credit today. However I am unsure whether I will get another credit (free). I have seen no indication of that. (Grateful for one, though!)

Also my wishlist was completely unviewable until I restarted my membership.

Do you have any reason to think you might be getting more than one?
