Hard to beat $10 for unlimited music and podcasts + soon to be audiobooks

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The audiobooks is very limited though. Just 15 hours per month (many books are longer than that) and in the case of duo and family plans, only the master account gets audiobooks.

That’s interesting I didn’t know it was limited to the main account. I’m a big audiobook listener, and the idea of being able to listen to something but then move on to something else is appealing. I pay for one credit on Audible every month but I have a lot of books, that after getting into them for a couple hours I realize they’re not really for me. That’s a lot of wasted money.  I wonder if the Spotify is going to give you the option to buy the book?

You can apparently buy an 10 hour extension if your hours run out.

Depending on how expensive that is, it might still be worth it.

But this is not released yet, right? I went and picked a couple audiobooks to listen them to them, but it comes back that I have to go into Spotify on the web and buy them and when I go there, I literally have to buy them there’s no listening to X hours, etc.

Truly the only subscription I'm happy to pay.

£3 a month if you're on a family plan!
