Sorry Thelma, I bought it for a gift to my younger sister, not sure about how the audio books work on it right now

Once you get it to play, the sound quality is okay- if that is what you ae asking.

I have listened to a couple of audio books (mp3 format) and they sound great.

I have music, videos, audiobooks on them. (I bought two, for my two kids). These are nice units. It doesn't do everything, but as a player it is great. With the wifi, you could also stream from sites.

Sorry. I was never able to get it to do much, but I'm sure it would do books. I love their older MP3 players. Especially the Creative Zen.

Dear Thelma, I must confess, my new Creative Zen is still in the box. My old Creative Zen was great for audio books and that is what I used it for. Great audio, great bookmarking. After 5 years it no longer was recognized by my computer so I purchased the new one, but haven't set it up yet. I borrow my books from the library, online. Ours has a great selection of e-audio books, so you don't have to pay to listen. Hope this helps.

You can download books fast, it works alright for that and I downloaded a good program 'Ambling Books' it works really easy, because the one that comes with the Zen isn't worth much, or mabe I didn't spend hours trying to figure it out.

Haven't used it with AudioBooks, but there is an option under Music for "Audio Book". I upgraded my firmware to 2.01US, so you may have to upgrade your firmware if the option isn't there.

Beast, love how you say that. Audio books work very well for me. Good features; pick up where you left off, option to speed up or slow down the speed up the audio. Just awesome. As you know you have to find some way of downloading the audio book (i used youtube). I dnt knw about audible and this player mixing

I have never used the Audiobook. For my mp3 downloads I had to get a converter from CNET. I just looked, there are two Audio book converters based on category selection. I'm not sure this will help but I hope it does. Always scan what you download first.

Yes. You just upload the book chapters in order on the iPod and make sure that the iPod is not switched to the shuffle position when it is on there are three settings. Off, play and shuffle.

Hi Jayne, I have not used for audio books but, I have downloaded audio lectures and bible studies, so I would think there would be no problemKathy

Yes, if it the app is installed on a Bluetooth-enabled device. However, it is not compatible with surround sound, so music generally does not sound very good. Its sound is fine for audiobooks but not music.

Yeah they do. Not entirely, but most of it. Any audio book or song will be perfectly hearable with the proper volume

A fellow audiobook lover, yes it can be used to listen to audio books that's why I bought mine. The volume level on some of these tablets is not very good but with the ihome mini speaker it really did boost the volume, I find myself turning it down. I can literally listen to my audiobooks and hear them being read all over the house. If you're on the fence about purchasing go ahead and purchase I think you wil be pleasantly surprised, and if not return it Amazon makes returns very easy.

I don't use audible?, you can load mp3 audio books and they play just fine. So far the main complaint that I have about this player is the buttons are very sensitive and it's almost required to lock the controls out to listen to the whole story.

Depends of the format of this audio books is it wav or mp3 it will read it other formats I dont think so

you can listen to audio books IF you burn them to disk first in an mp3 format. if you wish to read each chapter individually, I would suggest that you convert each chapter to mp3 format, so that they become their own mp3/track.That way you can skip previous chapters to catch up to where you are in the book.

I don't have an audio book on mine yet, but for a song, there is a play speed option when you hold down the right side of the screen for an extra 2 seconds. It can be set to 0(default), 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Not sure what speeds they correspond to. Since audio books are part of the Music library options, I would guess this option is also available for audio books.I have firm-ware version 2.01US, so you might have to upgrade if your player has an older firmware. I didn't remember seeing the audio books option in the earlier firmware.

If the book is an MP3 file, it will play it, otherwise no. The MP3 function is extremely primitive compared to other dedicated MP3 players, but it does work and the sound out of this little thing is surprisingly good. What I do is use a DOS command on my PC to dump the contents of the mini SD card that contains my MP3 files so I can find a specific MP3 on the player. If you don't know the number of the file on the disk, good luck finding it. It only displays a number, no filenames.

Yes you can, although I haven't done so yet. You can find apps for doing this at https://play.google.com/store/search?q=audio+books&c;=apps.
