Literally started doing that this week with Amazon Audible. I gave in an started the three month 99c trial and downloaded the app.

What surprised me a good way was my Kindle app was aware of this and asked if I wanted to download the audible version of the current book I am reading.

Been listening on the way to work and then reading on the way back. Enjoying it so far.

Some Kindke books also have a checkbox to add the audio (for a fee) when you buy it. Sometimes I’ve seen books discounted to e.g. £0.99, but adding the audio might be £5.99. The upsell seems to be a good hack for adding some revenue when there’s a deep discount being used to drive interest.
