Listening guide
At Fabler Audio, we care a lot about audiobooks, but we care about our listeners as well!
We are not only committed to producing exceptional audio content, but also to making our content more easily accessible for listeners.
We firmly believe that once you purchase an audiobook you have the right to listen to it where and when you want , from any device and player you prefer.
Therefore, any content sold directly by Fabler Audio is "DRM-free" and is distributed in standard digital formats - MP3 or M4A - that the customer can consume as preferred.
Formats
MP3
The MP3 format is the standard for audio content because it offers excellent audio quality in very small file sizes.
They have the great advantage of being compatible with almost all audio players but , not being designed for audio books, they do not allow you to separate the chapters of a book in the same file or to apply bookmarks natively.
Formats
M4A
The M4A format guarantees audio quality equal to or better than MP3, in even lighter files, while maintaining compatibility with most audio players.
Furthermore, this format allows to aggregate all separate chapters in one file, and it natively supports bookmarks.
As previously stated, we want our listeners to be free to listen to their content however they like - whether it's on their smartphone, their car's multimedia system or, why not, an old iPod.
However, there are many advanced features that can make the audiobook listening experience even easier and more enjoyable , including:
- Automatic bookmarks: so you never miss the spot at which you left off
- Sleep timer: to pause playback after a pre-set amount of time
- Speed control: to tailor the playback speed to one's taste
