How can I buy an audiobook? Not showing in web player.

Solved!

How can I buy an audiobook? Not showing in web player.

I've followed the steps as shown but there is no option to purchase the audiobook in my web player. I can purchase a top up, but I would prefer to buy the audiobook outright. Is this only available in certain countries? Please help!

Hey @mutantruby,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

Does this affect all audiobooks or only some? Can you post a screenshot of how it looks on your end? 🙂

 

Keep in mind that Audiobooks that are included in Spotify Premium cannot be purchased.

I think I only checked audiobooks that are included in Premium. Thanks for letting me know!

Glad I was able to help, @mutantruby 🙂 Have a great day.

In ref to: Keep in mind that Audiobooks that are included in Spotify Premium cannot be purchased.                                                   So if I am unable to purchase an audiobook on the Spotify Premium plan but I can listen to 15 hours of an audiobook but if the audiobook is for example 17 hours long, then I have to top-up for 10 hours which costs £10 in Cymru (my country). It's a good job that I'm not cynical because if I was cynical, then the term "legal scam" would come to mind. I'm not blaming Maxim, he or she just happened to be the person who broke the news about audiobooks not being available on Spotify Premier plan. It has got me thinking, which plan can Spotify members pay on for audiobooks. In a way, I'm even more confused that I was two days ago.  Hwyl am nawr (Bye for now).
