Spotify Opens Its US Audiobooks Offer: 300,000 Titles - Publishing Perspectives

Today's trip into the Catosphere took Panzer to the Publishing Perspectives site. There with a little digging in the posts he found one about Spotify. Earlier this year Panzer told you about Spotify getting into audiobooks through Findaway.

 

I want to see how this works out.

According to Porter Anderson's post, audiobooks are now available through Spotify in the U.S. Spotify's new service isn't a subscription service but, instead, the audiobooks are available for sale individually to listeners. According to Spotify they have 300,000 audiobooks available.

 

Panzer says, "Last year after Draft to Digital (D2D) acquired Smashwords, D2D sold Findaway (and Findaway's audiobooks catalog) to Spotify."

 

Note: This is a long post. Bring a thermos of tea, a muffin and a brownie for today's reading selection.
