When I first used Audible, there were some problems with 128 bit
incripted browsers, however, they finally got that fixed. I didn't
have to many problems navigating the sight, however, it does make
extensive use of Java scrips so be forwarned. Also, once I did
download the player and a sample book, I found the audio quality to be
vary poor. They are using 8 bit audio so that the books are smaller.
This is done primarily so that they take up less space for use with
their portable player. If you don't mind listening to below average
audio, you will be able to get some worth while stuff.
