I was introduced to libro.fm last week - a DRM-free audiobook Europe l store which appears to be a proper alternative to Audible.
Currently have books by @robinince.bsky.social, @profaliceroberts.bsky.social and @proffrancesca.bsky.social on wishlist. They claim to support local independent shops!

1st season. Top of Div 4 and thrashed Liverpool 6-1 to lift the FA cup. Think I might need to stop playing on Easy!
