Spotify’s audiobook business is separate from its streaming music effort, meaning books are sold a la carte and are not part of a subscription model.
In a nutshell: Spotify may finally be ready to launch a new premium subscription tier that includes access to high-fidelity audio. Sources familiar with Spotify’s plans told Bloomberg the new plan, which will be the company’s most expensive to date, will also include limited access to audiobooks as a secondary perk. It is unclear how the streaming giant will handle this, but it’ll likely materialize either as a set number of free listening hours per month or access to a predetermined number of titles.
