Various media outlets are today carrying an AAP report of a survey that purports to show increased support for the NBN. Had these outlets dug a bit deeper they might have found that the story was somewhat different.
Audio books services provider, Audiobooks.com, has launched what it claims is the first unlimited cloud-based audio book service which allows users to take advantage of unlimited audio content via an Android or Apple mobile device.
According to Audiobooks chief executive officer, Sanjay Singhal, with the new release, users will have no need to return audio books, no long-term contracts and no time constraints on audio book use.
Singhal says that for $24.95 per month, users can take advantage of unlimited cloud-based audio content via an Android or Apple mobile device, and that the service features several technical innovations that are “unavailable from any other audio book source.”
“Since it's a cloud-based service, Audiobooks.com allows users to instantly access thousands of popular titles from anywhere using an Internet-enabled mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad, Android smartphone or tablet. There are no storage constraints because the content resides on the cloud, and users can access and play audio books instantly with no downloading necessary.”
With the service, users can mark their place in an audio book and resume listening at the same spot from any Android or Apple device, laptop or home computer without using a browser plug-in or special application. “This innovative new feature enhances the user experience and is only available through Audiobooks.com proprietary cloudmark sync technology,” Singhal said.
“Now users can enjoy as many audio books as their schedules permit for an affordable monthly charge. The consumer-friendly subscription service allows users to cancel at any time.
According to Singhal, the introduction of an unlimited, cloud-based audio book service allows Audiobooks.com to once again “revolutionise the audio books industry."
"We believe our ability to empower users to listen from anywhere using a mobile device, the cloud-based bookmarking function and the affordable access to unlimited service of thousands of bestsellers will transform the way customers use audio books."
The Audiobooks.com concept was developed only last year by a team of audio book enthusiasts who Singhal said are committed to achieving marketplace leadership by delivering “superior value to audio book customers.”
