Free Spotify Audiobooks are now live for US Premium subscribers

US Spotify Premium subscribers now also get 15 hours of free audiobook content per month, with bestselling titles making up 70% of the 200,000+ book catalog.

Spotify’s total paid audiobook catalog is about 350,000 titles.

Fifteen hours should get you around two average audiobooks a month, but you can also purchase a 10-hour top-up for $10.99 or buy the book outright.

Spotify Premium subscriptions start at $10.99 monthly. The feature appears as an Audiobooks tab at the top of the main app.

Audiobook access has been available for weeks to paid Spotify subscribers in the UK and Australia.

For the US launch, Spotify shared some audiobook listening trends.
