Question about Audible Romance Package
Are the books in the Audible Romance Package downloadable to a device, or streaming only?
I've been looking at the info at Audible, and they don't seem to say; they have instructions for adding titles to one's library on a device, but nary a word that I can find about downloading to a device. If it's streaming only, I don't want to bother; if I can download, I figure I'll try the free first month to listen to a few titles. Thanks. |

My guess is that you can download to their app, but not sideload to an MP3 player. Akin to Hoopla, for example.

you can download them to several devices using the app. That's what I did when I tried it, I don't like to have the wifi always on. I only connected when I wanted to sync my reading position on the book when I switched from the phone to the tablet.

I'm not a romance fan, but there are enough classics and historical sagas in the mix to make it worthwhile. |

If you can, check before going out if the books plays with the wifi turned off, I had two books that only started if the wifi was on, after it had begun playing I could turn wifi off and it would play without problems, but it didn’t start unless I had the wifi on. Don´t know why it happened.
Now if I know I'm going out I open the scribd app and turn the wifi on, then open the book, push play and then I turn off the wifi, just to be safe. |

the last time it happened was this month, I downloaded it on the weekend and during the week had to go do errands and was counting on it, but I couldn't make it work, so I'd say it would have been 3 or 4 days in between
