Overdrive - hate all the hoops you have to jump through to download
axis360 - annoying that you can't tell if it's available until you click on title and then it says how many copies are owned and how many are available. Went into the Juvenile Fiction genre and then the subcategory Comics & Graphic Novels. Clicked through several Stick Dog books and none were available. Then I tried the subcategory Books & Libraries. Several titles there were unavailable as well. Got annoyed because all I want to do is find a book and check it out to see why I dislike overdrive and axis 360. Actually once I found an available book it was just one click to get it. Well, actually 2 because I clicked checkout and then it asked if I wanted to continue with the checkout. Uh...yeah I do. Thanks for the fail safe. Also, easy to return. Okay, I don't hate axis360 anymore. Note: I stumbled upon the Available Now filter. I guess next time I'll use that when searching.
Hoopla - From pre-19things usage I would say it's easy to use and I have found some decent music. I've searched through their audiobooks before but didn't find anything I was interested in. For this blog, I borrowed A Snicker of Magic and though I don't really want to listen to it, it was soooooooo much easier than getting an ebook on the other platforms. Returned it too and that was easy, just scrolled down the page and found "Return it now."
Zinio - I think I had the Zinio app at one point, but deleted it because I didn't use it. I'm not a big magazine reader.
