- Spotify has launched two new audiobook subscription accessories for selected members of the Premium Plan
- Audiobooks+ and Audiobros+ for plan members will allow users to buy additional listening hours in addition to the 15 -hour limit
- The new options are only available in selected markets, with similar plans that will follow for US subscribers.
Spotify’s audiobook ecosystem is constantly evolving and is as popular as its extensive podcast library. Now, the music transmission service is expanding its audiobook access to Spotify Premium subscribers with two new additional subscriptions.
Billing as ‘Audiobros+’ and ‘Audiolibros+ for the members of the plan’, the new Spotify audiobook accessories offer additional listening hours for premium subscribers, providing users with the most flexible subscription plan options that allow you to customize access to meet your personal needs.
The addition of the two new options aims to “help grow the editorial industry and create the best possible experience for shelves”, which the company shared in its announcement. Spotify has not shared the prices of the new accessories, which is probably due to them that vary according to the market.
Currently, new subscription accessories are only available for premium subscribers in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
This follows the initial tests of Spotify in Ireland and Canada, which turned out to be successful, and similar plans will be followed for US subscribers, according to Techcrunch.

Greet the audiobooks+
As for the new Spotify audiobook plans, the first plan is Audiobooks+, which allows individual duo plans administrators, Premium and Premium Premium relatives to add additional audiolibros 15 hours listening to each month. The base plan already includes 15 hours of access to the audiobook, so buying the audiobros complement+ will double that. The Audiobooks+ option for plan members is slightly different.
In a movement for the first time for Spotify, the members of the family and duo plans who are not the account manager can access their own additional listening hours of audiobooks. Spotify says that all you have to do is request access to the audiobook from the administrator of your plan, which you can then buy additional audiobook listening hours in your name. If users run out of hours before their monthly bill leaves, plans administrators can also buy a unique 10 -hour recharge.
The new subscription accessories carry the Spotify audiobook ecosystem at a different level, offering an element of flexibility that could really benefit listeners who read more than other members in their family or duo plans. This means that plans administrators will not have to buy additional hours for each member, and can prioritize those who are more likely to take advantage of the Spotify audiobook library.
In 2024, Spotify launched its independent audiobook access level in the US, a plan designed for users who want more specific audiobook content instead of music and podcasts, although this plan offers a reproduction with ads for both. With the new Audiobros+plans, the main objective of Spotify is to provide the listeners more flexibility within their subscription plans, which is excellent for avid readers, but music fans still matter, all of which are still patiently waiting for the Spotify Hifi complement.
