I see that there are a lot of pre-Black Friday sales on audiobooks. And sales on memberships seem to have escalated, too, have they not!

Of course, "everything" audio long has gone digital, and there are practically no audiobooks on CD's anymore. As far as B&M (brick-and-mortar) stores are concerned, can a person still find any audiobooks in them?

Retail business at B&M stores certainly has changed in a lot. And maybe at no time more than around Thanksgiving.

It used to be that there was only Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. The stores would open at about 9 a.m. People would break the doors down, trying to get a Cabbage Patch Doll, or whatever was faddish at the time, before the stores ran out of them. Ah, the good 'ole days!

Then, Black Friday started becoming GRAYER, and Grayer, and grayer . . .

Stores started opening an hour or two earlier, and earlier. B&M retailers invented the day after Black Friday. Then the day before Black Friday. And, all the while more and more stores were open on sacrosanct Thanksgiving Day itself! (My chronology may be off a little bit).

And somewhere in there, the Internet turned everything on its head--probably more in ebooks and audiobooks than in anything else. Again I ask: as far as B&M stores are concerned, can a person still find any audiobooks in them?

And, while I'm doing this post about audiobooks, may I add a word or two about our beloved tubemonkey? Do you think that it is just coincidence that he has turned over some of his work to someone else just before the mayhem surrounding Black Friday? I think not. Most of him may be made of yarn and stuffing, but inside his head dwells a real brain.

Happy Thanksgiving!

In theory, downpour has a black friday sale. They have a banner but that seems to be the extent of it. Every time I click on it I get a big fat 404 error code. Anyone have any luck?

Downpour -- Rental of the Week -- (Sorry I do not know)

$1.99 -- Fletch -- Gregory Mcdonald --> 5.96 hrs --> Mystery & Detective

Quote:

Fletch, investigative reporter extraordinaire, can’t be bothered with deadlines or expense-account budgets when it comes to getting his story.
Working undercover at the beach to dig up a drug-trafficking scheme for his next blockbuster piece, Fletch is invited into a much deeper narrative. Alan Stanwyk, CEO of Collins Aviation and all-around family man, mistakes the reporter for a strung-out vagabond and asks him for a favor: kill him and escape to Brazil with $50,000. Intrigued, Fletch can’t help but dig into this suspicious deal he’s being offered.
Dodging the shady beach police as his case begins to break open, and with his temperamental editor Clara pushing for his article, he soon discovers that Stanwyk has a lot to hide and this plan is anything but what it seems.

This was on sale this month. Please check your library before renting.

Yes I am getting the same error.

1632 by Eric Flint is on sale for $6.95. I think it lasts for tree more days. I think it is regularly $19.95. I had already bought it before I thought to post it here so my memory might be a little off.

Forgive me. I had forgotten all about Cyber Monday! And computers and other electronics are such an integral part of what this MobileRead website is all about!

"Alternate history" = Historical fiction?

I did a specialized Google search of the entire website ( search term(s) site:website name ). I didn't get any relevant hits.

BTW--I've found that to be a very helpful type of search. Google probably has several more that I'd find helpful. I haven't bothered to read over Google's webpage, covering things such as that, very much, though.

Audible has some of the worst category groupings. I have seen Alternate History and even outright Science Fiction listed as Historical Fiction.
