SYNC: Summer 2011

Thank you for joining us for SYNC's summer of YA and Classic audiobook downloads!  

Sadly, the summer is coming to a close and so are our free audiobook offerings.

  Tell us what you think! 
We would like to return next summer with more free audiobook downloads.  
Your feedback can help make that happen!  

Would you be willing to take a short survey?

I am not able to download this weeks Sync YA audiobook and I wonder why? I was able to download last weeks audiobooks with no problem at all. I need help.

Caitlin are you trying to download from the above links? If so, those are from last week and you won't get them. Did you get the link to this week's new ones?

I believe the system was a little bogged down this morning. I have just tried it and was able to download both titles - although I did notice it's still a bit slow.

I think more gerbils in the download server are needed. Faster, gerbils, faster!! :)

Thank you so much for the opportunity to download such wonderful YA audiobooks.

I took the Listener/Downloader survey and I hope others find the time to do so as well.

I look forward to reading, errr, listening to these great books again and again!

Thanks!

Yes, some of us never leave the genre after we discover what incredible writing and narration is happening in this field!

I must be hopelessly lost ... I read paper books, ebooks and audiobooks till they are coming out my ears. LOL!

Thanks for the wonderful downloads this summer. Last year I found out when there was only one week left in the program. I have been an advocate to my friends and visitors to my blog for audio books. They are a great way to increase your reading time. Often I find myself sitting in my garage once I get home, so that I can listen to a few more minutes. I also have found that I listen to a wider variety of genre. I am listening to an autobiography right now by Ironman Triathlete Chris McCormack. I did the survey and found it interesting. Hope you get lots of responses.
