Audiobooks are the ideal companion when jogging, on long car journeys or on a boring train ride. Simply transferred to an MP3 player, the audiobook fan always has their entire library with them and does not have to carry thick tomes around.
Audiobook lovers who regularly want to immerse themselves in gripping crime stories or enchanted fantasy worlds receive one audiobook credit per month for 9.95 euros with audible.de’s Flexi monthly subscription. For this fair price, they can choose an audiobook from a total of 25,000 titles, regardless of its regular price. The subscription can be cancelled monthly, and credits can also be given to friends as gifts.
“Since audible.de launched on the German market, we have been trying to find a solution tailored precisely to the needs of audiobook fans: listening to audiobooks regularly and at a fair price,” says Arik Meyer, Managing Director of Audible. “Our customers also prefer unabridged audiobook productions to abridged audiobooks. For this reason, we offer some of the best titles unabridged for download on audible.de exclusively to our subscribers. These audiobooks are not released on CD because of their length.”
“The boom in the audiobook download market can no longer be stopped. A flexible audiobook subscription is the logical next step for all audiobook enthusiasts who want a regular supply of listening material,” says Arik Meyer.
Other new features: existing audiobook credit no longer expires; they can now be carried over to the next month. If you want to buy an additional audiobook, it costs just 9.95 euros. Credits can also be given to friends as gifts, and existing customers can keep using their subscription until it expires, but can of course switch to the Flexi subscription now.
