Please reply to this comment with any questions you have about Audible and how it works!
hey I'm from india and have been looking to get into audible..there are a few books that show that they cost Rs0.00 on amazon and says free with audible trial.
so I wanted to ask that if I end up getting my an audible subscription then can I access to these books which are Rs0.00 without any hassle of buying it or using credit etc? example- like there's a romance author mariana zapata and all her books are like Rs0.00..so does that mean i have to pay nothing but for susbscription and then i can listen to all of them?
hey can you please respond?
Call me stupid! I keep listening to your videos and other ones, even the info put out directly by Amazon. For the LIFE of me, NO ONE WILL ADDRESS THIS ONE THING!!! If you can listen to any book, why do you need credits? I can only assume that if you aren't using a 'credit' or paying for the book, then it goes away eventually? But could you just listen to it again from the library? Why do I need credits OR why do I need to purchase a book if I'm already an audible member? Don't I get to listen to ANY book? So confusing. Seems like the basic question, but apparently not. Because NO ONE addresses the elephant in the room. Please PLEASE help me???
Can you search Audible by your favorite Narrator instead of by Author? 😊
Does the out right purchase price of a book go down over time? Starting at $30, 6 months later down to $20?
I work night shifts at the movies, and I think it’s great for work, driving, gaming etc.
For sure. Night shift sounds like the perfect time!
@@SamuelEarth it’s a lifestyle thing but idk. I feel like it improved my life
Good to have someone who speaks clearly about it.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you - this was an awesome video to share with my older parents!!
THANK YOU!!!! That covered all my questions.
No problem, thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
With all AI advancements lately and considering how big Amazon is, you would think they could cut down production cost significantly. I will just wait. If not Audible, someone else will do it. They don't really have the competitor at the moment and thats the biggest problem.
If Spotify hasn't figured out how to do it with their experience doing so in the music industry, I don't see anyone crossing the finish line before Audible. The thing is, Amazon has nothing to do with the overall production cost of an audiobook. That's up to the author, narrator, engineer, production company, etc. but I don't think the production cost has to do with it as much as everyone says (myself included) when you consider the production costs of music, movies, and TV shows, which I'm sure are on average much MUCH higher. I will say that audiobooks are not NEARLY as popular as those forms of entertainment, so I wouldn't be surprised if demand plays a part but there's not much more I can say on the subject. It may be a fun video topic later on!
How do you back up your books when you get a new phone or mobile number? Are the books stored on your device? Thank you!
I believe they're backed up like an online cloud-like platform. In order for you to listen to an Audible book, it has to be in your library but it also has to be downloaded. To my understanding, if your phone is running out of space (depending on what kind of phone it is and how your settings are configured), it'll un-download them to give you more space for apps, files, etc. outside of the app but they WILL stay in your library so you can access them whenever.
Here is a question from a Boomer. I have Audible but would like to be able to organize the books by topic instead of seeing a long alphabetical list of all my books. Is this possible? Does Audible include ways to create folders? I see a COLLECTIONS tab and maybe this is what I am talking about. But it doesn't seem easy to see the Collections you've created. OK, maybe I am simply confused.
The closest feature Audible has to what you’re describing is collections. Audible is for anyone of any age - there’s a stereotype that the older someone is the less well-verses they are with technology and in my opinion, it doesn’t even matter whether that’s true or not because technology can be used by literally anyone who knows how to use it.
hi there... I'm a bit confused. isnt audible like Netflix I pay and get to listen to ANY book that I want? cause I see people talking about buying books on there, what's the difference. I thought its a streaming service for books. and can I download and listen offline? will I still have access to my books if I cancel my subscription?
Hi! I did a much much better video explaining the whole thing. Here’s a link to it. ruclips.net/video/yS6nI3QwnUM/видео.html
I think these parts should help but I do recommend watching the whole thing in case they don’t.
What is Audible? 1:20
Downside of Audible? 10:12
Do the catalogs on both plus & premium have the same audiobook titles? Or does premium have a wider selection? Ty
Good question! Both memberships contain the same catalog, but the Premium selection is much vaster than just the Plus Catalog. The Premium selection includes the Plus Catalog and literally all other books. You do need to pay for them with credits, but with Premium Plus, you'll get at least one credit per month to use on any book no matter the price. They also have awesome perks, deals, and specials all throughout the year!
Okay wow! Thank you for this video!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Maybe silly question: how you access that $8 option to just listen to audible plus selection? On my app I only see the yearly subscription or the $15.99/month option…
Hmm… what country are you in? It may only be available in certain areas of the world. I’m in America.
@@SamuelEarth - I’m also in the states. Just realized maybe because I’m just looking inside the app lol. Tried looking at the actual website on computer and seeing more options now! Was trying to avoid doing this at work lol
I love your charisma bro
Why thank you!
The free trial for $7.95/mo am I able to download and keep the book just like the premium plus plan?
I don’t think there is a trial for the $7.95/mo. I’m pretty sure it’s just the Audible Premium Plus trial, and before the trial is over, you can cancel the membership so they don’t charge you the $14.95, and afterwards you can restart your membership plan at $7.95/mo. That way, you get monthly access to Audible Plus, and you get to keep the book you got with the Premium Plus trial free of charge.
Can you search Audible by your favorite Narrators instead of by Author? 😊
Yes, if you go to “Search” and look up the name of your favorite narrator, a list of their narrated books should come up! I just tried it with my own favorite.
Does anyone know of a good alternative option?
My question is, why would someone look for another option?
Very informative!
Thanks for watching!
Hello Sam thank you
Is the Audible release date the same day as the physical copy? Thanks!
To my knowledge it depends on the book. In the last year I've paid attention to this regarding at least 5-10 books and generally, I've found the answer to be yes.
Can you do more quick cuts & edit chops on your videos, you talk for about 3 seconds as a normal person than quick edit, maybe you could take more adderall and chop it down 2 second bits, then edit again. Thanks.
LOL.
Hi Malcom. Are the books read by humans? thank you.
1. Thanks for commenting! My name is Sam, not Malcolm. 2. Yes they are read by humans.
Finally got the answers.
Its to bad you did not do enough research as to how difficult it has been to load and use new books as everything changed from simple to complex after Amazon bought AUDIBLE? It was very rare to have any problems what so ever from 2008 to the year AMAZON purchased audible? Now they have changed completely and I have too throw away my perfectly good Classic iPod's I have used for 15 years with only two batteries being changed and now I need to spend hundreds of dollars too buy something else as Amazon separated from Apple iTunes? Thanks Audible for giving me the best quality and Fair Exchange I have ever needed till Amazon took over?
I understand what you’re saying but I can’t speak for Amazon’s purchase of Audible. I threw out my iPod Classic maybe 7yrs ago and have had no problems with the price of anything Audible has done since I started using it at the time. I’ve had no problems with loading books and using their app either.
I keep cancelling the subscription every month yet i get charged automatically every damn month. How do I avoid this?
I suggest calling Audible’s helpline about the issue at 1-888-283-5051. Best of luck!
@@SamuelEarth Thank you
Very good review
Thank you for watching!
I'm only interested in just streaming selection monthly... don't need to own them forever
I understand. In case you’re not a member already, I’d suggest the Audible Plus option then - doesn’t sound like there’s a need for monthly credits!
Time stamps would be cool
@1:11 What is Audible?
@1:25 Can you keep the books you buy forever?
@1:55 What are the membership options (at a glance)?
@2:58 What if you want to buy more books after using your monthly credit?
@3:12 Do books come with a membership discount?
@3:45 Are there any drawbacks to using Audible?
@6:07 What are the membership options?
@7:03 Which one would I go with if given the option?
@7:33 What if one book per month isn’t enough?
@8:47 How is their customer service?
@10:02 Something I always found strange about Audible
@10:50 How do you use Audible?
Anyplay?
What do you mean by Anyplay?
@@SamuelEarth with anyplay you get unlimited audiobooks. It’s a reduce library but it does have a lot of books.
@@gam07d56 I appreciate the recommendation but I stand by Audible as a dedicated member and one reason for this of many is the vastness of their selection.
unless you piss off amazon, then they delete all your books and nothing you can do about it.
Better be careful! I haven’t heard of anything like this but given the breadth of their userbase I’m sure it happens. It probably isn’t any worse than Facebook. 😂
slow down tiger
Easy! You can change the speed in the playback settings.
Play Books is better
Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion! Personally I’ve never heard of Play Books.
Boo 👎🏻 I didn’t want to pay for books I wanted unlimited books with a subscription guess I have to pirate it
I understand what you’re saying - I get so many comments about this it’s not even funny. Here’s what I had to say about it in my new video, the time stamp is 11:00. ruclips.net/video/ViipMFOviw4/видео.htmlsi=iCg8UWq9waAfjLWh
