I buy Audible credits, which come out to ~10/book.

I don't see an option for them on the non-logged in page, but I buy a set of them, and then can use them how I want, not per month.

While the Netflix model is nice for residual content, 90% of the books I want are available on Audible - I'd rather have that selection than a more limited selection I could get in a subscription model.

I think some places do a subscription, though - Have you looked at Playster?

That's interesting, I don't see the option to buy a credit on Audible but I've got the $15/mo subscription, maybe that's only available to non-subscribers. Could you post the URL to the credit-purchase page?
