Audiobooks.com Launches a Spotify for Books
Movie and music sellers have proved that selling their content on an unlimited, monthly basis can be appealing to consumers. Now Audiobooks.com hopes to prove the same for books.
For $24.95 a month, the service will give users unlimited access to its library of 11,000 audio books through its website and an HTML5 mobile app.
Though Amazon-owned competitor Audible has a monthly membership, it relies on a credit system that give users access to a certain number of books per month depending on the fee. Audiobooks is the first service we can find that is streaming books using a monthly model.

Podiobooks

Podiobooks
Free serialized audio books, delivered on your schedule.
The term podiobooks was coined by Evo Terra to describe serialized audio books which are made available in podcast format.
Listeners to Podiobooks.com can choose to receive the episodes of their books via an RSS feed or by listening to episodes by directly downloading episodes from this site. Some listeners keep the audio files on their computers, some transfer the book to CD, but most transfer the file on to their mp3 player so they can listen no matter where they are.
Why are the books on Podiobooks.com free of charge? Many authors do this to get exposure for their work, others do it in the hopes you'll buy their next work in development. Still others simply do it for the sheer joy of writing. And while it's not required, you have the option to donate money to the author of your choice.

Audio book commons
The New York Times had a story on LibriVox, a community of 1,800 volunteers reading out of copyright books and releasing them as public domain audiobooks.
The Times article mentions two more audiobook projects using public domain books: Literal Systems, which releases recordings under Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs terms, and the Spoken Alexandria Project, which releases recordings under Attribution-NonCommercial after five years or 100,000 downloads from Telltale Weekly, whichever comes first.
