Okay, friends, I want to know how you guys feel about this. I feel so torn. On the one hand, I *love* that Overdrive is now giving people the option to purchase in the WIN catalog from both Powell’s and indie bookstores, on top of B&N and Amazon. On the other, I hate the idea of putting ads in our catalogs. I’m so torn about the whole issue but also feel like I could go either way. Any thoughts on the WIN catalog?

Another reason to stop supporting Amazon.

Brilliance Audio, owned by Amazon, has made the decision to stop allowing libraries to purchase and circulate their downloadable audiobooks. Gee, thanks Amazon!
