A Scribd subscription gives you access to over 195 million pieces of content. It’s also a 3-in-1 subscription. Once you sign up with Scribd, you can enjoy audiobooks, e-books, and magazines at Everand and download slide presentations and educational content at SlideShare.
So why cancel?
Believe it or not, as vast as Scribd’s library is, you might find better deals elsewhere. Audible for example, is a great alternative.
With Audible, you can keep the books you purchased after you cancel your subscription. The audiobook collection available at Audible might be larger than Everand.
Lastly, a subscription at Audible costs $7.95 monthly. It’s cheaper than Scribd’s, which is currently listed at $11.99 monthly.
It might be time to turn the page, learn how to cancel your Scribd subscription, and try Audible or other e-book subscription services.
