Yep, it’s worth it
Mar. 14th, 2016 09:36 amI’ve got an Audible subscription. It’s pretty much the only way I can get any “reading” done these days, since I’m a terribly slow reader, and have way too much else going on. It’s somewhere around $25 a month, and that $25 gets me two downloads, plus a decent discount on anything I buy beyond those first two. I figured this would be a bit of a break-even deal at first, but no. Really no.
I didn’t redeem last month’s credits, so here’s $50 worth of books, and at least two or three months’ worth of listening. The Holmes collection alone is worth it. In fact, I think the Hot Zone there is the first one I’ve grabbed that’s been more than a few cents less than my subscription fee.
Also, the last thing I expected was to see Kareem Abdul-Jabbar writing Sherlock Holmes pastiche. I gotta see what this is all about. Fleeing from the Sherlock fandom sort of meant fleeing from the Sherlock Holmes fandom in general, so I had no idea this was a thing. So, here we go. This is my entertainment for the next decade all sorted, I think. I’ve still got a few on my list from previous months I haven’t got to, but it’s nice to know that even when my YouTube subs death-faded, I’ll have something to keep me entertained while still.
