Frequently asked questions about audiobooks
What is an audiobook?
An audiobook is the audio version of a book, read by professional narrators or the authors themselves. Unlike radio dramas, which feature multiple voices, music and sound effects, an audiobook focuses on a single narrative voice. Audiobooks can be listened to via apps on smartphones, tablets or computers: on the go, whilst exercising or before falling asleep.
Where can you listen to audiobooks for free?
Audible offers a selection of free audiobooks that are available without a subscription. Additionally, you can try Audible free for 30 days and during this time download one audiobook of your choice for free and keep it permanently.
Which are the most popular audiobooks?
The most popular audiobooks change regularly, but some titles and genres remain consistently in demand: thrillers and crime fiction, fantasy series, non-fiction on personal development and literary classics are amongst the most listened-to categories. On Audible you'll find current bestseller lists that are updated weekly, as well as editorial recommendations by genre and mood.
Where can I listen to unlimited audiobooks?
Audible offers two subscription models: With the Standard subscription, you choose one audiobook each month from the entire catalogue of hundreds of thousands of titles and listen to it as long as you have a subscription. With the Monthly subscription, you receive a monthly credit for one audiobook of your choice, which you keep permanently, plus unlimited access to a listening catalogue with over ten thousand additional audiobooks and podcasts. Both subscriptions start with a free trial month.
Which audiobook app is the best?
The best audiobook app depends on what matters to you: selection, usability or price. The Audible app offers hundreds of thousands of titles, an offline function for downloading, adjustable playback speed, a sleep timer and bookmarks. The app is available for iOS and Android and can also be used via Alexa-enabled devices.
How much does Audible cost?
Audible offers various subscription models that can be cancelled monthly. The first 30 days are free with all models. The Standard subscription offers one audiobook per month from the entire catalogue. The Monthly subscription additionally includes a monthly credit for one audiobook that you keep permanently, as well as unlimited access to the listening catalogue with exclusive Audible Originals. Current prices and terms can be found at audible.de/ep/vorteile.
What is the difference between an audiobook and a radio drama?
An audiobook is typically read by a single person and follows the text of a book. A radio drama, on the other hand, is its own production with distributed roles, sound effects and music, rather like a film for the ears. On Audible you'll find both: classic audiobooks and elaborately produced radio dramas, including many exclusive original productions.
Can I listen to audiobooks offline as well?
Yes. In the Audible app, audiobooks can be downloaded and played without an internet connection. This is particularly practical for commuters, travel or places with poor reception. Once downloaded, titles remain stored in your library.
