I would think it should because I have played both music and spoken word in the MP3 format.

Yes it will play mp3 audio books.The only thing it won't do is save your place in the middle of a chapter, so you will have to skip to the beginning of the last chapter you left off at. Otherwise, as long as what you are listening to is mp3 format, you can listen to just about anything. the player also plays regular cds:) Enjoy!

I play my mp3 cds on it but I don't see any other mp3 capabilities beyond that

I don't have a MP3 player. You can always pull up the manual on line and check to see if it will work.

Dear Gene, I don't have an MP3 CD that I can try and play to answer your question. The Sony box says it has CD-R/RW playback capability, but there is no mention of MP3 anywhere, so I am pretty sure it does not.Katia

Maybe! You need to know what format your audiobook is in. A true audiobook will have an extension of ".m4b" which I have not tested. This is a special "flavor" of the mpeg-4 standard. It has samples of James Patterson's books, which are in the mp3 format that it will play. So if your audiobook is in the mp3 format it will play. It does also play e-books, which are not the same thing.

Overdrive has books in MP3 and Secure WMA format. This player will play either one. I have used both many, many times.

Just a caution, the manual says it will not play MP3, WMA, and DivX files. So if you're playing store-bought CDs, no problem, but it won't play your downloaded tunes in those formats.

I took a quick look at the Audible site. I could be wrong because I don't know much about Audible, but it looks like you need an app to play the Audible books. So, I would agree that the answer is probably "no." This device plays mp3s and WAV files, and I think a few other formats.

Dont know... havent tried. all my stuff is drm free... . However online it says that it supports all drm free mp3s so maybe not???? Sorry I am not more helpful.

I don't think it will. It plays MP3 and WMA files (stored on CD or USB) and of course normal CDs. You can always convert WAV files to one of these formats.

Hi Diane, Yes it does. It can play: Audio CD & CD-R/CD-RW (audio data/MP3 files). -Anthony

I don't know what kind of a CD player you have but, I load mp3's on my drive and can play on TV's, automobile sound system, CD/DVD player/recorder and computer. I would think that if your player has a USB port it would work with it. I also use it to show photos and video on my TV.

If the audio book is an mp3 file sure. If the book is not an mp3 then probably not.

I purchased as a gift for someone else. However, It will play CD's burned from a computer and I believe it plays them if coded as an MP3 file as well.

I believe so... BUT since the piece of garbage no longer works, I no longer use it. I returned it twice for a new one and replacements failed to. I have gone over to a MP3 Player and given upon MP3 CD players. Every MP3 CD Player I've tried recently has been JUNK and fails to keep working or even work at all.

The owner's manual states under CD's that it plays MKV, Xvid, JPEG, MPOAAC, FLAC, MP3, Music [CD-DA], WAV, WMA. It states it is compatible with CD-R and CD-RW and of course Music CD's. I can't say I have honestly played an MP3 disc on the machine since I usually play my music CD's on a high end Denon machine I have hooked up for that purpose. I will say I love the BluRay player. It loads as fast as a standard DVD and the Net features are also great.

yes. mp3 CDs play just fine but I'm having a problem with the casette player. Rattling noise during play is very distracting and it is in the player NOT the casette
