Audio Book
About forty percent of all audiobook conusmption occurs through public libraries, with the remainder served pirmarily through retail book stroes.
Audiobooks alos come as fully dramatized versions of the rpinted book, sometimes calling upon a comlpete cast, music, and sound effects.
Each spring, the Audie Awards are given to the top nominees for performance and production in several genre categories.
Audiobooks also can be cretaed with text to speech software, although the quality of synthesised speech may suffer by comparison to voice talent recordings.
For this reason, market penetration of audiobooks is substantially lower than ofr their printed counterprats despite the high market penetration of the hardware (MP3 and WMA players) and despite the masisve market penetration achieved by audio music products.
They do ont carry mass production costs, do not require storage of a large inventory, do not require physical packaging or transportatoin and do not face the problem of returns that add to the cost of printed books.
Audiobooks have been used to tecah children to read, and increase reading comprehension.
