IS THIS COMPATIBLE WITH AUDIBLE.COM?
655669
The Audible.com website says that it is compatible with the Zen Vision. Click http://www.audible.com/dc?mt=MP3&mfid=5 and scroll down about half way and then download the software for the device. There is Help button to contact the company with further questions. Good luck to you young lady.

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.

Audible.com also has a subscription service. You pay a montly fee (mine is $22ish for 2 downloads a month). Seems a little pricey, but when you consider that most audiobooks on CD cost upwards of $50.00 its not a bad deal. Once you've downloaded a book from Audible, you own it. Between that and my library, I have audiobooks for the entire month. Audible has a very wide selection of both abridged and unabridged titles. My library has a far smaller selection and many are abridged, which I don't like. I want a book to last upwards of 10 hours. Now if I can only find a player I like...I bought the Zen V Plus and just don't like it as much as my old Nano. (see my review). Audible.com also has a subscription service.

As with most speakers, it uses an eighth-inch jack just like a headphone jack, so yes, it is compatible. They are as durable as any speakers should be, which shouldn't necessarily be very much so, since they do nothing but sit on a table or shelf. They have worked for me functionally for three months.

Yes, but only for MP3 audiobooks. It doesn't work for WMA audiobooks. For MP3s it works very well. When you download them, make sure the download file is "Audiobooks". If the book lands in "Music", it may pause between the sections of the book. Not a serious problem, but occasionally annoying. I download audiobooks from my library, and most of those are WMA, so I returned my Clip Sport and purchased a Clip+, which takes both types.

Hello, I did not try it specifically for audio books. It should work any mp3 or wma file.

Many thanks. From experiences with audible I know Nero software (which comes with the drive) is more than difficult. Using James's advice yielded excellent results.

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.

Yes, all you need to do is to download the audible app in google play. so easy and sounds great

Depends upon what you mean. I have listened to audio books that I have downloaded from my local library on the Electorhome and they sound just fine. However I did need to copy the files to the player (this is as easy as copying files from one directory to another in windows). The player does not, as far as I know, have built in support for things like Audible like some more expensive players. Also, the player does not have the ability to play books at various speeds - which is a feature I would dearly love to have when listening to audiobooks. That said - for the money you get a very good player for audiobooks. Depends upon what you mean.

You could use your computer to save the audible book as an MP3 file and then load it on the T10. I use MP3 DIRECT to record audio

No, the cowon X9 is not recognized as a valid device by the audible manager and the last I heard Cowon was not going to get it validated. I had to buy a SanDisk Sansa Clip Zip 8 GB that I use to play audible books.

I would think so. It's standard 3.0 Bluetooth. If you are wanting it to listen to music it's not your best choice as its not a high fidelity earpiece. There are better listening devices out there. If you are wanting it for voice only, I would say you're fine. Radio Shack carries this model and could be more specific about its capabilities with a kindle.

Yes it does support both, though I have yet to try these features out. It comes with its own software for downloading and organizing podcasts and it also supports Audible.

Yes, it has a "go list". I have never used it as i mostly use my clip for audiobooks.

Marian, you are wrong. I second Flora's comment: Audible audiobook are natively supported by iPods. Audible support is explicitly listed in iPod tech specs!
