I'm not sure about that, but it may be possible depending on the book's file-type. Sorry, I couldn't be of more assistance.

No, it plays only CDs, but it plays them very well. I would highly recommend this!

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

Yes, they do play audible books, with one exception - the Version 1 Sansa e260 does not work with the audible .aa file DRM format file. If you buy new, you should get a Version 2 and those work with audible files. If you are buying used or refurbished, verify whether it is V1, V2 - or it might be the Rhapsody version. Having said that, if you are internet search savvy, you can figure out how to get the V1 to work.

Yes, you can! I download audio books from the library using the Overdrive platform and it recognizes the player. It actually works really well for books (but not for playlists).

No, it does not. Returning it now. Also purchased it just so it could play MP3 burned on a CD.

No. I bought it JUST for audiobooks, not music. It shuffles chapters, even though I have it turned to direct play. If you accidentally hit the forward or back button, forget trying to find your original place.

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.

It plays audio through either a USB, a headphone jack or Bluetooth. So yes of course you can play mp3s; I wouldn't recommend it as a CD player

Are you asking if it reads mp3 songs? Yes, it does. My songs on the ipod are in mp3 format, you can even watch a movie on netflix on your ipod/iphone and use it as a speaker. On the back it has a link to connect other types of mp3 players but unlike the ipod/iphone it won't be able to charge them.

With the proper application yes. As there are many providers of audio-books you would have to download the correct app to view them.

It can play audio files like mp3's or audio books but not like Pandora or internet radio.

Yes it does. It plays CD's and DVD's. I've had mine for 4 to 5 months now and it's great!

I would assume that if a recorded book on CD is in the standard CD-DA format like all commercial music CD's, then yes. Having never bought a book on CD, I would assume they are made to play in any audio CD player. And yes, this Coby player does play audio CD's.

I sent it back. As soon as I realized it was not compatible with Audible books, I got really mad and then I returned it. Sorry I don't know about games.
