For people who choose Audible over something like Libro.fm that does not use DRM, why do you do it?

    Yep, the one driving factor in the mass adoption of any new technology, especially when it comes to media consumption, is convenience. All other factors, like quality, cost, or restrictions (like DRM or availability) are secondary. This has played out the same in every single format war, from Laser Disc, VHS, DVD, cassette, vinyl, MP3, torrents, and streaming services. If you can make something more convenient than what came before, you win.
