That is a good point about the Amazon ID. That changed sometime ago, and there was a point again sometime ago, where I was no longer able to use my old audible ID and had to change to my current Amazon ID. Hopefully, if this change happened only when roses subscription was discontinued and then resumed, her new ID which is the Amazon one was linked to the old audible ID. Your experience with searching on the audible site on your iPhone is interesting. I have not noticed that. I have a link to the audible mobile site on my home screen. When I use that, I can always access the edit box, type what I want and then search.
