I want to pre-order the book Mistral's kiss on unabridged audio cd but I'm not sure which format to buy. They have one with the bar code 1423322304 that says unabridged lib ed for $70.72, one with barcode 1423322290 unabridged edition for $25.71 and one with barcode 1423322312 mp3 cd unab mp3 edition for $ 16.47. They all say they are unabridged audio cd. Whats the diffrence?

Library editions tend to be more expensive because they will be borrowed/used many more times than a home edition...so they say...it might also just be because this allows the library to jack up the fines for lost items. Anyways...you don't need that.
The second one sounds like it is just standard CD edition, might have a dozen or so CDs, but fine none-the-less.
The last one has the audio compressed to fit a lot more book on one disc...much cheaper for the publisher and takes up less room for you. I would go ahead and get the third if your CD player is compatible with mp3 format, otherwise get option 2.

Bitrate is the difference. Buy the $25 version.
