The Book Port only plays format 4. You are not stuck with formats 2 or 3 unless the book isn't available in format 4. You can download books from your library at any time and you can change formats as well. -- Barbara Jones =20 =20 -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx = [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Robert Acosta Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 9:53 PM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Re: How Low Will It Go? Hi guys, I have an audible.com question or two. Will the book port only play = format 4? Also is there a way to change the formats of some of the books i = have in myy library in audible or am i stuck with the one's chosen. Most of my formatted books are 2 or 3. Naturally, i would like to switch them to = 4. If I cannot do this i can order two books and format them to 4. = Currently, i am reading the Promethius Deception by Robert Ludlum on format 4 in = book port and, it is just great. ----- Original Message -----=20 From: "Barrett, Don" <Don.Barrett@xxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 5:55 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: How Low Will It Go? > My mp3's are 24 kbps so 32 should be fine, at least I think so. > > Don > > > -----Original Message----- > From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Nolan Crabb > Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 7:02 PM > To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [bookport] How Low Will It Go? > > > I'm creating MP3 files from a CD book using Sound Forge 5.
