Hi Monica,
Do you have the phone number for Audible? Can you please email it to me
privately?
Thanks so much.

We have one of those MP3 players Audible gives away. MuVo makes
many MP3 players. I think the Audible one is more accessible than many
other MP3 players because it does not use a little screen to navigate
music or audio tracks. It's very simple with basic controls, although
they are tiny. How much it holds depends on the quality of the audio you
want. I usually select a high (large file) format and can only fit about
half a novel, maybe 175 pages. Perhaps with less quality you can get a
whole book on there. The Audible MuVo is very small, about the size of a
pack of gum and fits easily in a shirt pocket. It has a built in USB
plug so it's easy to use with the computer. If anyone knows where I can
buy them, let me know since there's often more than one book going at a
time in our house. I'd rather have a few of those single purpose players
than complex players that hold more. We've had an Audible membership for
about a year and have been happy with the quality and selection of their
books. Using their software and procedure for downloading books and
transferring to CD or players is sometimes frustrating due to
incompatibility of burners and/or the locks Audible has to have in place
to ensure copyright protection. However, the online help is good and
their telephone support service has always been able to promptly solve my
Audible problems. The only problem with Audible is that it costs money.
