Why should you get your audiobooks from Floodplain Books through LibroFm?
Audiobook listeners often assume that Audible is the only game in town because that’s what the billionaire owner of Amazon wants them to think. He happens to be one of the wealthiest people in the world, and we don’t think he deserves any more of your hard-earned money. You know who does? Independent bookstores. Why? We pay federal, state, and local taxes. We employ our fellow community members. And we actually care about the careers of writers and audiobook narrators and the reading and listening experiences of those we serve. You might have purchased your audiobook through Audible, but chances are you discovered that audiobook because an independent bookstore created the buzz around the title and the author. Independent bookstores provide the bulk of advertising dollars and drive industry taste, but Audible reaps our profits. This holiday season, please consider kicking Audible to the dustbin of history and opening an audiobook account with LibroFM. You can choose which independent bookstore you want to support with your subscription and purchases. We’d be honored if you selected Floodplain Books when you open your account. LibroFM works just like Audible. The only difference is that we won’t be launching Katy Perry into outer space or renting out the city of Venice for our second wedding. We’ll be too busy putting books into readers’ hands and audiobooks into their ears, all while paying local taxes and supporting the careers of the writers and audiobook narrators who make this all possible.
