Consumer Use of Audiobooks Continues to Rise - Publishers Weekly

Panzer made a quick stop at the Publishers Weekly site today. There our speedy little kitty boy found a post about audiobooks.

According to Ed Nawotka at Publishers Weekly, audiobook use is up. A recent survey by Edison Research and Triton Media shows 50 percent of all Americans have listened to an audiobook in the past year. Where does all this listening happen? Most of it is in their cars. It's reported that 74 percent listen in their cars. Newer vehicles come with a built-in entertainment center which includes the ability to listen to your audiobook as you go to work. There is a link included in the post to the original press release about the uptick in audiobook listening.

Mom says I have an amazing voice.

Panzer says, "Hmm ... I know audiobooks are the bright-shiny new thing right now. So ... I've been practicing for doing my own audio book. What's His Name told Mom I'll be ready in about a century ... whatever that is."

Note: This is a medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and a muffin for today's reading selection.
