I am really surprised about how a for profit company can be so dumb.

Killing the golden egg laying goose can be so apt here.

How does one comment here??

In terms of Audiobook Players for mobile phones, i tend to divide them into 2 categories:

1. Apps which play the media stored locally:

Android Clients: a. Smart Audiobook Player - Versatile, has almost all the required audiobook features. Very stable and one of the oldest players in the market (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ak.alizandro.smartaudiobookplayer&hl=en&gl=US)

b. Listen Audiobook Player: Newer, has a better UI (in my opinion). Cloud Sync of reading progress (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acmeandroid.listen&hl=en&gl=US)

c. Voice Audiobook Player: Good UI, FOSS (https://github.com/PaulWoitaschek/Voice)

iOS Clients: a. Bound Audiobook Player: Stable with most of the required features (https://apps.apple.com/...)

b. Haven't used any other app

1. Apps which work of server-client model

a. Audiobookshelf: New, still being actively developed. Android client though in beta is quite decent. iOS client still needs work. Multi-Platform (https://www.audiobookshelf.org/)

b. Plex with Prologue (https://prologue.audio/) (iOS)/Bookcamp (https://www.bookcamp.app/) (iOS/Android)/Symphonium (https://symfonium.app/) (Android): In terms of ease of use and features, Prologue beats all the other apps however the other apps mentioned provide a good experience

We did it!!

How to do that?

I just finished Genesis by Robin Cook. Like all his books, this one is also a Medico-Thriller. This book published in 2019, is based on Genetic Profiling based in DNA sampling and recreating the family tree.

I was an avid fan of Robin Cook in my teens and read almost everything written by him, this book however did not recreate that excitement. It is a well written book working on an important promise but I never connected to the protagonist and the antagonist. Other may like it though based on its premise and Robin Cook charisma.

George Guidall, like always, does a fantastic job with the narration.

Don't know where I got the book from. It was in my library for years. These days it is extremely hard to find the books with were originally published on CDs and are now only available on Audiobookbay. THough the torrents are not very well seeded. i would suggest anyone wanting to read Robin Cook should get their hands on these asap.
