Audiobooks hit the Spotify website
All that time on the PC doing damage to your reading? No worries, you can now mix the two - with audiobooks now available for your reading/listening pleasure on Spotify.
Well, we say 'audiobooks', but we mean 'audiobook' - just one is there as a trial right now, Chris Anderson's Free: The Future of a Radical Price, which also hits the traditional bookshelves this week. The book itself is narrated by the author and 'considers a brave new world where the old economic certainties are being challenged by a growing flood of free goods – newspapers, DVDs, T-shirts, phones, even holiday flights.' Not exactly Harry Potter, but what do you want for nowt?
To be fair, it's probably in tune with Spotify and by all accounts it's a decent read - so check it out for yourself if you fancy giving your brain a workout. If all goes well, more audiobooks will follow. Hopefully something a bit lighter.
