I use the Overdrive app to download audio books from my county library onto my PC or iPhone. I also found another company, Catapult, that seems to advertise similar digital distribution services. Neither site said anything about "award winning". Also neither company is especially well known, and I couldn't find either as listed stock. So I hope the award winning company, is not them; since it wouldn't provide the "name" boost I'd be hoping for. Keep searching.......

'ljjasper10...theres another company It is "Getjar" an award winning company. Here's some info from their website:

"GetJar is the world’s second largest app store with over 1 billion downloads to date, second only to the Apple App Store. The company’s key point of difference is its open market approach , which allows GetJar to deliver applications for both feature phones and smartphones across all major platforms such as Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, iPhone and Symbian among others. The company provides more than 75,000 mobile applications to consumers in more than 200 countries. In 2009 GetJar won the Meffy, Tiecon50 and Mobile Excellence awards for its achievements and products. GetJar is backed by Accel Partners and is headquartered in Silicon Valley with offices in the UK and Lithuania."

This is another possible scenario. It's important for Metatron to have a large distribution channel such as a company like this. If they are going to move to the next level - this is imperative...JMHO of course
