I enjoy being able to purchase many audible books through  Audible.com.  I am 
thrilled to be able to purchase these books on the same  day that they hit 
the book stores.
 
How many other authors have 
taken great pains to have their books  available in other means other than 
print?  
 
You know as well as I that not all books have or will be available as  audio. 
  books so we have a limited amount that we can get as promptly  as our 
sighted friends.
 
 
Now you have Book Share that folks are scanning inthe printed books and  
allowing paid members of Book Share to download these books and are not breaking  
copyright laws.  If they are breaking any of the laws they are still up and  
providing this service and collecting membership fees.
 
So if a person can purchase and download a book to play on their Kindel why  
can they not have a choice of listening to it or reading the print?
