Chris, I too agree with your sentiments. In an effort to prevent the purchase of a bigger iDevice, I promised, absolutely promised myself I would not download any more than 5 books at a time. <Smile>. It can be very tempting to have a library of books on one's device, but many times those books are not read as often as one would like, and many of these books are several hundred megs in size since they are audio after all. By limiting myself to just a very few books, I will insure that I completely finish the books before downloading another as well as not clogging up the NLS bandwidth. I learned from my mistake with my Victor reader (VRS) where I Purchased the biggest SSD card I could find and quickly discovered I didn't have the time to download and read as much as I would have hoped or had the time to do. In short, the storage space on IOS devices is precious so I'm not going to use up that storage for tons of books I probably won't read for more than a chapter or two.

I think the library did an awesome job, and you can tell they put a lot of thought into it! And just as mentioned previously, you are able to browse the BARD site right from within the app itself! In the Get Books tab, just flick to browse and double tap. You will be put right on the Main page of the BARD site! You can then search for whatever book or magazine you would like. True, you can not download books while browsing, but just add them to your wish list while browsing, then when you are done, just go to your wish list and download whatever book you want. I do hope they introduce control gestures for playback in the future releases, but for the first release, totally awesome job!! I do plan on contacting BARD and just saying thank you for the app, and letting them know the great job they did. Sometimes I think we should just take a moment and show our appreciation for all of the time and effort that was put into something. We can always find improvements that might be made, but a simple thank you and great job should never be forgotten! My hat is off to NLS for a job well done!
