Hi, the lock-ups that I mean are exclusively with Audible Download Manager. The other program, which is just called Audible Manager, has nothing to do with them. Both programs, however, are no longer developed, which just means there won't be any more updates, but of course they are still the recommended way to manage Audible Content on the Windows platform. They haven't been retired or anything of that sort. Kind regards, Felix
