Libraries often provide access to e-materials. Many readers use free services like YouTube or Libribox for audiobooks. Some use paid e-services such as Audible or Everand. What e-services do you or have you used

My library used to have a variety of e-services, including Hoopla. How I miss Hoopla. Now some libraries of Texas--mine included-- have banded together, offering ebooks and audiobooks for their patrons.

I also pay for too many e-services. I pay for Kindle Unlimited, Audible Plus, and Everand.

Some services I do not pay for. I use YouTube for audiobooks. Many are Libribox, but not all.

Susan | 697 comments I get most of my audiobooks and ebooks from the library - Libby & Hoopla. Hopefully the library will be able to continue these services. Like many cities, our budget is tight.

I only use audible. I can manage to listen to one audiobook per month so it is a perfect fit.

Cathy  (cathepsut) | 663 comments I use Audible, but I am trying to cut back on Amazon services. I‘ve been using Libby through my library, but the choices in Germany are a little limited. Planing to trial Everand and Storytel. I will probably end up with Storytel, the most expensive option—with my amount of audiobooks it makes the most sense. They seem to have a good catalogue.
