What I do is pull up my library on my phone via the Audible app and make a list
of books I want to sell back. The other way is just to have the app open to
your library and call Audible and identify the books and the rep will take care
of everything. The credits are instantly put back into your account. Inn trying
to be considerate, I try to limit my books to no more than four at a time.
My computer never come into play when selling books back. It is just my iPhone
and the Audible app.
I typically make a list of about ten books at a time and sell them back slowly
over a week or so.

You can also return books for credits as long as the purchase was within one
year.

Well, I have never purchased an audiobook through iTunes. I have been an
audible member for many many years, long before I ever thought of a Mac or
before iPhones existed. For me, the number one reason not to buy through
iTunes is the cost. The books are outrageously expensive. If you join
Audible, at the platinum rate, which gives you 24 credits a year, you can
get 24 books a year at a cost of slightly less than $10 per book. You have
to pay for the credits all at once, which might not be something everybody
can do. But if you can, it's for sure worth it if you are a reasonably
heavy user of audiobooks. They also have a gold level, which gives you 12
credits per year, but the credits cost more, making your book purchase cost
you something like 13 or $14 per book. In addition, if you run out of
credits before your subscription renews, you can get 15% off on other book
purchases. And you can choose A daily summary from either the Wall Street
Journal or the New York Times at no extra cost. Also, audible runs periodic
sales where you can get three books for two credits or sometimes two books
for one credit from a list that they provide on their website.
I realize that none of these things were what you directly ask about, but I
think they're very important, since books from the iTunes Store are
expensive. As for the quality, since I have not used a book purchased from
iTunes, I obviously can't comment. But between the so-called CD-quality,
which is the highest one to give you that warning and the next one down, if
you're just listening to your books on the average phone speaker or
whatever, it doesn't matter. We are talking about voice recording here
after all, not high fidelity music. I'm not saying there's no difference at
all. I'm just saying for me at least, it's not worth it. If you have tons
of space and want to use up twice as much space with audio, go for it.

Hi all, first off, I would like to say that I have been buying my
audiobooks through iTunes/iBooks store for quite a few years now and it
has amounted to quite a collection. Recently though, I have started using
Amazon which owns Audible <x-msg://3/Audible>.
The reason to why I am thinking about switching has to do with the audio
quality .
I'm not completely sure, but isn't the sound quality of iTunes audiobooks
considerably lower than Audible <x-msg://3/Audible>'s quality in the
Audible <x-msg://3/Audible> app for IOS?
For those who have the Audible <x-msg://3/Audible> app do you notice any
difference in sound when you choose the high option compared to
standard? Besides the alert that says when selecting it, warning: This
setting will result in larger file sizes and longer download times. Which
is pretty obvious anyway. Just wanted to know if the higher option really
makes a difference or not to the listening experience .
If not, I'll continue to use iTunes and if anyone could say why they
prefer Audibl <x-msg://3/Audible>e compared to iTunes I would appreciate
that as well.
I thanks
Daniel
