Yes, well I include the NFL certainly. Because I do like to listen to that. And it is expensive. So I'm trying my trial and will see you at the end of that whether I keep the subscription or not.

So for me, the subscription at this point is all about seeing how I can deal with finding audiobooks reasonably efficiently and also whether the premium talk and music content is worth it. Mary
