I don't know about the value of libro.fm... Seems to me that the monthly subscription is the price of a physical book and you only get one per month?
I get a much better deal with my city's library which offers a large catalogue of audio books for free. It's not owning, it's borrowing like you would from a library but at least it doesn't cost anything.
I think the pricing of their subscription is roughly the same as audible's, but you get your books DRM-free. They also have some great books on sale sometimes that you don't need a subscription for, and you can choose a local bookstore to share revenue with. That said, city libraries are an amazing option as well.
