The rise in travel and transit have forced our hand, we’ve collated the best audiobook platforms, heaven-sent for all your literary sonic needs.

LIBRO.FM

The spiel: Libro.fm makes it possible for you to buy audiobooks through your local bookstore. Whether you are paying for monthly membership, giving an audiobook gift to a friend, or buying audiobooks for yourself or your organisation, Libro.fm splits the profit from your purchases with your local bookstore.

Libro.fm has excellent reviews across the board. Great quality narration with a portion of proceedings contributing to our greatest love (local bookstores.)

This is Pages number one pick for quality audiobooks at a reasonable fee.

 

SCRIBD

The spiel: Scribd gives you access to millions of ebooks, audiobooks, magazines, podcasts, and more — all in one place, for one price.

Scribd is a good option. You don’t own any of the titles but you can listen to an unlimited number for a monthly fee. Ocasionally the title’s we were searching for weren’t available, which was a tiny bit frustrating.

 

CHIRP

The spiel: Chirp is a service that lets you get limited-time deals on select digital audiobooks. All books you purchase are yours to keep.

Audiobook platform Chirp offers no membership fee or hold lines. You buy and own the books you choose. Not bad, not bad.
