Spotify now offers anAudiobooks Access Tierfor $9.99 a month.
A collection of over200,000 audiobookslanded on Spotify late last year.
However, the Audiobook Access Tier is a strong alternative to Audible.
The cheapest Audible plan is $7.95 and only provides an extremely limited selection of audiobooks.
Upgrading to the $14.95Audible Premium Plusplan gives you a free credit to buy a bestseller each month.
Spotify doesn’t use a credit system or hide bestsellers behind a paywall.
You just pay a monthly fee and listen to whatever audiobooks you want.
Spotify’s 15-hour monthly limit is also fairly generous.
That said, bookworms who regularly exceed 15 hours of listening each month may benefit from a SpotifyandAudible subscription.
That’s less than you’d pay out of pocket for a single bestselling audiobook or hardback.
In a newblog post, Spotify says that its free users regularly give a shot to interact with audiobooks.
Note that you’re able to getfree audiobooksfrom your local library.
And Audible Premium Plus' credits system allows you toownaudiobooks.
To reiterate,Spotify Audiobook Access Tieris only a dollar cheaper thanSpotify Premium.
If you want audiobooks and ad-free music, join the Premium plan.
The new Audiobook Access Tier is intended for people who care more about audiobooks than music or podcasts.
