In Finished Business

Not one of these stories are complete, this is a waist of my leisure time; as well as being very frustrating!

SERIOUS TECHNICAL ISSUES. DON'T BOTHER.....

Raymond Chandler is a master. These vintage radio shows are a classic. However, for reasons which defy explanation, Audible has chosen to sell a product which is technically flawed. Not just the popping and scratching expected from old audio products. The problem here is that each story suddenly cuts off BEFORE the performance is completed - oftentimes in the middle of the much-awaited summary of the crime investigation. It makes no sense! Just sheer negligence and lack of quality control from Audible.com. This is not book costing $4.95, $7.99 or even $10. The cost is a credit or over $20 with tax. UNCONSCIONABLE! Next stop for Phillip Marlowe: REFUND!!! I can hear these same stories on Old Time Radio podcasts free of charge. What a disappointment!
