And then of course you forgot to mention that this may only apply to Amazon/Audible in the United States. I am not saying it does, but there are often limitations with these services in other countries. One example is the lack of availability of a family account for Amazon in Canada. I understand in the United States you can set up something like that and invite family members and they will also enjoy the benefits of Amazon Prime, here in Canada that is not available or at least not at this point.

Taylor Sent: February 25, 2022 6:14 PM To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Attention All Amazon Prime Subscribers Hello Everyone, I am posting this because I recently discovered a new resource for accessing / downloading newly released and more, Audible audiobooks at no additional charge to Prime subscribers. Please understand that there is a great deal about Amazon and Amazon prime benefits that many find rather confusion, including me, so I am just going to relay my experience and in no way am I posting as an expert. Okay, the other day, I saw an advertisement for a newly released collection of short stories that were published on Kindle, only, with audio narration (narration by Audible). There was a fee for the collection but the advertisement stated that Prime members could download and read the collection for free. Intrigued, I fired up my trusty iOS Kindle app and opened the Discover tab. Now remember, I'm going to keep this as simple as possible. In no way was my first experience a quick and smooth one for I had no idea of how any of this worked. Okay, after opening the Discover tab, I selected the category, "Prime Reading." There is also a "Kindle Unlimited" category, which I did not explore. I suspect that the Kindle Unlimited program is to Prime Reading as the Amazon Music Unlimited program is to Prime Music; a guess, only. Once I selected Prime Reading, a new screen was displayed. There are several sub categories to explore but, in order to search for a specific title, I selected "Browse the Catalog." On the next screen, there are two important items to note: (1) the search field and (2) the filter button. Whether you merely want to browse the catalog or search for a specific title, set the filter to "eBooks with Audible" and launch your search. All of the resulting titles will be eBooks that have Audible narration that are free for Prime members to read in Kindle and/or listen to via Audible. Of course there are many, many ways to navigate through the Prime Reading universe but the above was the method I used to get started. What I find most delightful is that I have been able to download some titles that were published for Kindle, only, and still enjoy the Audible experience without having to pay additional fees. Okay, I hope you find this useful. Happy Reading, Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
