    How do the Audio-books on the GW site work?

    Hi there. How do the audiobooks on the GW site work, if I put one in my shopping cart and pay for it, do I get a link or something to a place where I can download it, or will they send me a cd in the mail with the book?

    i depends:
    Example: http://www.blacklibrary.com/horus-he...ers-nails.html
    If you go "Buy Now" they will send you a CD but if you click "Buy MP3" you will get a download link after you paid for it.

    The links are always accessible from My Account > My Downloads page when you log in to their site. It allows you to download any digital content (mp3 or e-book) that you've purchased, as many times as you need, with no restrictions that I could notice.

    Not sure if you're allowed to download digital content of something you've purchased a physical copy of, though, since I never used the BL site for stuff I that I could buy printed or on disc.

    In addition to what Lupe said:

    The mp3s are not protected in any way, just simple *.mp3 files.
    If you purchase a CD you have only that, a CD, so no additional content, no free access to the *mp3 version of the same title etc.
    Finally, you have a limited number of downloads, 5 as far as I know, of the same product.

    So say you purchase an audio drama as mp3, you can download the corresponding file a total of five times, than it is blocked. The same is also true for ebooks.
