Too busy to sit down and get through your book list? One company thinks they have your answer. Blinkist offers a way to read or listen to summaries of key points of books in about 15 minutes. It features over 1000 books with 40 new ones added each month. They cover a diverse range of topics and authors like Amanda Palmer's "The Art of Asking" and Paul Graham's "Hackers and Painters". You can sync with Evernote, and access your library across your Kindle, phones or computers. The Blinkist Premium edition is available in the Techdirt Deals Store for 62% off of a 1 year subscription. (Blinkist has a free 3 day trial available)

Note: We earn a portion of all sales from Techdirt Deals. The products featured do not reflect endorsements by our editorial team.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

BEWARE of Blinkist!
Tried the free version and failed to notice they later billed $50. A year later, another $50 (thru Google Play). I filed a complaint and an "unsubscribe" with them and a fraud notice with PayPal, so what do they do? - They billed my credit card (must've got it thru Play) $80! Finally I hear from them and they offer a $30 "discount" instead of refunding me. These people are CROOKS!

Do you have any renewal offer
I have been using Blinkist since last one year and would like to renew my premium subscription. Is there any renewal promotional offer? If not then I will cancel my existing membership and buy new with your offer.
