FREE/BARGAIN — Audiobooks

[Catlady]

I've contacted Audible via chat. If you're already a member, you can gift a membership to yourself. As Issybird noted, your existing membership continues as is, so what you're buying is 12 credits, not a year's membership. The 12 up-front credits have a two-year expiration date (as long as you're a member, of course).

I'm probably going to go for it, though I'll wait till after Black Friday/Cyber Monday to see if there's some other deal then.

Thanks for calling and getting it clarified

I thought about doing it.

Sorry if this is posted, but I checked page 1 and didn't see it.

50% off for 4 months on Audible.co.uk -- exp 13 Dec @ 11:59pm GMT

I just did this from the US. 3.99 pounds for each month was what it said. That converts to less than $6 a month, so cheaper than the deal listed that starts Monday. ($5.18 to be precise).

As for a link, I think the one I have has an affiliate so I can't post it, and I don't know how to take it out.

Rental Only

The words held within these pages, written over two and a half thousand years ago, ring just as true today as they did in fifth century BC China. Bestselling author and master storyteller James Clavell (Shōgun) brought The Art of War to greater prominence in the West in the 1980s and showed how the book’s instruction was applicable on a smaller scale and could be used for personal betterment. Clavell’s wonderfully evocative foreword and helpful notes throughout the text guide the reader through preparations and battle plans, correct use of weapons and knowing when to fight—and when not to fight.

With a deep understanding of both strategy and human nature, this military treatise illustrates the fine craft of knowing one’s enemy and oneself. From military officers to CEOs to those simply looking to be more powerful in their own life, The Art of War has become required reading for anyone seeking a path of success through the modern world.

Rental FAQ

• Spoiler:

  When does my rental period begin?
  
  Your rental timer will begin counting down when you first initiate the download on your device or 10 days after purchase, whichever comes first.

  How long can I listen to a title?
  
  All digital rentals provide a minimum of 30 days to listen to a book from the time you initiate your first download. With some of our longer books, such as Atlas Shrugged (63hrs), we extend the listening period to 60 days. You do have the option of purchasing a 5, 10, or 20 day extension after you have made your rental purchase.

  How many times can I listen to my rental?
  
  You may listen to a rental as many times as you would like until it expires.

  Can I extend my rental time period?
  
  Once you are logged into your Downpour.com account, you can purchase a time extension for any of your previous rentals via THIS link. After clicking “Extend Rental,” you have the option of purchasing a 5-day ($1.95), 10-day ($2.95) or 20-day ($4.95) extension. If your rental has not yet expired, the purchased time will be added onto your rental. (Example: if your rental has one day remaining, and you purchase a five-day extension, you will now have six days total before your rental expires.) If your rental has already expired, the extension will allow you to listen to your book again for the amount of time purchased.

  Can I have the same rental on more than one device?
  
  You may listen to your audiobook rental on as many personal devices as you own. Your rental time will be synced across all devices on which you have installed the Downpour app.
