For those interested, I updated the stats for the Top 20 public libraries based on their OverDrive Audiobook collections. I also included how much they rose or fell on the list since the last update.

I've been very pleased with the Hoopla selection from my library, but that player leaves a lot to be desired.

If I could find a away, I would liberate Hoopla content to listen to in a better player, and just delete it when it's time to return, as is done with mp3 library loans.

But it doesn't look like anyone's hacked Hoopla's DRM yet.

The player stinks, but at this point, I'd be happy if Hoopla would just download content to the SD card and not the internal memory.

I just lost Hoopla at one of my libraries - budget crunch doncha know:

Due to 2017 budget reductions, Freegal and Hoopla are no longer being provided by Timberland Regional Library. If you have questions, please contact Ask-A-Librarian.

Bummer. Hoopla is not my first choice. I much prefer Overdrive. But still, it's sad to see a library having to reduce their choices.

Yep, it's a shame. At least one of my other libraries still has it.
