I think it was a good choice indeed, it just takes longer to download. We had idsl, which was pretty slow, and it took an hour to grab a book on the average. However, now we have adsl and it is about fifteen minutes which is much more acceptable. I suppose cable folks fly on their downloads. My isp is soon going to some sort of microwave digital with 6 megs up and down, so I should have them in seconds if that happens. marlaina Lieberg ----- Original Message ----- From: "albert griffith" <albertgriffith@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, February 05, 2005 3:28 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: beginner audible question > It came up on the list once and Larry said, it's the only format in real MP3 > and they chose that one since it would be of the highest quality.
