Spotify introduced a brand new partnership that can add greater than 1,000 new audiobooks to its library.
The Swedish streaming platform is partnering with Bloomsbury, one of many largest publishers in the UK, to convey titles akin to Need, the current number-one bestselling title collected by Gillian Anderson.
Duncan Bruce, Spotify’s director of audiobook partnerships and licensing, introduced the partnership on the one-year anniversary of including audiobooks to Premium. The catalog is expanded with “an array of stellar titles from acclaimed authors,” together with Sarah J. Maas, William Dalrymple, Alan Moore, Madeline Miller, Dan Jones, Samantha Shannon, and Ann Patchett.
These authors’ titles are paired with narrations from top-tier expertise akin to Meryl Streep, Emilia Clarke, Adjoa Andoh, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
Sam Halstead, Director of Audio at Bloomsbury, added that this partnership brings authors and narrators to as many listeners as doable.
Spotify added that since launching audiobooks, the corporate has paid “hundreds of millions of dollars to publishers” on an annualized foundation.
