Doesn't work on Mac. Tried on my son's PC and got a file with .odm extension that couldn't be opened with any program already installed. Why not just a plain old MP3 that could be used on Mac/PC/Linux? No DRM doesn't help if you need a specific platform and extra software to play it.

I borrow audiobooks from my hometown library, and burn them into iTunes. Doesn't hurt to check before you buy online.
