Michael,
Audible mentions the Book Currier, but both machines work as well. In fact, I
think APH does much more to make the BP more usable due to more on going
aggressive programmers and a great support staff as evidenced by the many
discussions on this list. Remember, that all Audible does in mentioning the
Currier is to suggest "optimum" settings for Audible book formats, namely
Format 4. This format is the best for manipulation by the Book Transfer
software as well.
I have been an Audible user for much longer than I have owned my BP. The
Bookport has only made Audible much better.

You can use both with equal ease. Both are good products, but I'd go with the
BookPort every time.

Greetings, All.
Every once in a while, messages come on to the list wherein the writer
seems to be determining if he/she should go with BookPort or BookCourier. I
don't know how significant a factor this is, but in checking out the
Audible.com and BookShare sites, they both specifically reference BookCourier
as a workable (for lack of a better term) device without referencing BookPort
at all. If I was looking again, I think I would give that factor quite a bit
of weight.
I have not tried using either source yet so I don't know: Does
BookCourier being mentioned mean (as I would infer rightly or wrongly) that it
works
much more easily and with better compatibility with Audible and
BookShare or is it not that big a deal?
Thanks in advance for your responses. As a new BookPort user, I have
to admit this is giving me some concern.
Michael
