If I can still download and listen to something they aren't even selling anymore, that gives me some confidence in the permanence of my cloud based library. Now, who can say what the future holds, but personally I'm not worried about loosing access. I literally just tried it to make sure it still worked. I can still download and listen to them any time I want. Even in this case, I've never lost access to listen to these books. They've removed the option to purchase them through Amazon and Audible in preparation for the new audiobook releases. Since then (to my knowledge), these stories are no longer available as audiobooks, full stop. For example, I purchased books like Eric, The Last Content and Interesting Times through Kindle to get access to the audiobook through Whispersync. I get distrust of cloud based digital libraries, but that hasn't been my experience. Plus, they're getting some big name actors to do the readings which is pretty cool.īut I don't trust Amazon to not decide that they have some copyright dispute with the Pratchett estate or something and pull the books out of my kindle library. This is a huge boon for the earlier books especially since the quality of the recordings isn't really up to modern standards. They're re-recording all the audiobooks and they'll start publishing in April.
