Audible.com is site that sells "books on tape" for you to download to 
your
iPod or other MP3 player, a PDA or to burn on CD and listen to in the 
car.
 The site specifically tells you that you can do all these things.

Then you read the terms of service which say:  "The Audible content is
provided for your personal use. You agree not to resell, copy ..."

How can I download, copy to my iPod or burn to a CD without copying?  Do
you think they are even aware of this humorous inconsistency?
