I agree that the audiobook support situation for libraries has been crazy-hard. My heart goes out to you. My wife stopped working in a library just as this was developing, so I don’t get first-hand reports of how bad it is.
I also don’t understand why there has been this reluctance to make it easier. The standard assumption is that they are afraid that if regular people get ahold of MP3 files, then the torrentz will rule and their future revenue will drop to near zero.
It looks like Apple and Amazon have put the lie to that idea, finally, by remaining in business after converting to MP3 audio files. We can only guess that it took a long time for Audible to see what was staring them in the face.
