nice! Where did you find out about this? Does Audible send a newsletter?
if you guys ain't listening to Leo Laporte……
I downloaded a whole lot of stuff from audible the other day, but it's a real pain to be able to download and play them because they use the magical 'aa' file type which can only be played on players they approve of (and there's issues with certain types of players only playing certain 'number' style downloads - I got lost in there somewhere). Spent ages trying to burn it to a CD/DVD so I could mp3 them but got nowhere. Not worth the effort in my humble opinion.
If you read this and are still interested & want more audible coupons see http://www.couponcabin.com/coupons/audible/ (eg 14 day free trial + 1 free audiobook worked for me) - note that they also have a fairly large number of free books that you can download even if you have no credit, as long as your membership is current.
Here's a link on how to burn Audible files.

With the duration of some books going up to 40 hours, you will be burning a lot of CDs.
I prefer to get a device that will play it for me (I use a Windows Mobile PDA).
Also, even if you cancel your account, you can still log in and access all your content.

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the Kindle play files in this format? I love my Kindle, getting free audio books makes it even cooler :-)
Gotta say, I'm not familiar with this author but the price is right and I have a suitable player so I might as well check it out.
gotta love Leo!
