What makes me angriest about Audible, apart from its virtual monopoly on recorded books, is that you must have Microsoft Windows or MacOS in order to use the Audible download manager or Itunes, without which you cannot decode and listen to Audible’s proprietary and DRM-ridden sound files. Linux users are outta luck. (Yeah, you might be able to run Itunes under WINE, maybe not. Not sure it’s worth dropping money on an Audible audiobook to find out.)
