How does Listen NJ work and why doesn’t it work with iPods?
(back to top) In order to use Listen NJ, you must first set up an Audiobook Account and then download OverDrive Audio Book software. Instructions will be provided for you to follow. All of Listen NJ’s audio titles are provided by OverDrive, Inc. and use copyright protection technology from Microsoft Corporation (digital rights management technology). Unfortunately the iPod (and Mac) do not currently support copyright-protected Windows Media Audio (WMA) files. OverDrive, along with hundreds of online music and audio book providers, is hopeful that Apple and Microsoft can reach an agreement that would enable support for Microsoft-based copyright-protected materials on the iPod/Mac. However, presently, no such agreement exists.
