Just use the device built for that, the Kindle.

Does the Kindle have BT? I know the three I have don't, and she doesn't have any other means to connect any type of audio device. Radio, CD, BT - all she has in the car.

Mine does not, the ones that the kids have do.

The "free" audible with Prime is very limited in scope, you'd have to subscribe to the full Audible to get audiobooks.

That said I drive, like a lot, 2 hours each way to work everyday. And audio books are a big part of what keeps me sane. If I went the audible way then I would be bankrupt pretty quickly.

Libraries are a good place to get audio books, but I still go through them faster than I can get them, though most libraries have online digital checkout options for audio books, so check with your local library on that.

When all else fails I torrent audio books. I belong to a private torrent community that does nothing but audio books. It has come in very handy.

I really wish someone would start a Netflix type audiobook service, and all you can listen to flat rate service.

4 hours of drive! What else you do during that long drive?

I like the idea of a Netflix kind service, but if you look at it Amazon probably covers a huge library of books! I wish Audible had an unlimited book options on a flat rate.
