Audiobooks overall have seen an increase in sales in 2013 as a result of the observations made by Audiobook reviewer Chuck Field from Geeknutz below.

Having a family and a day job makes running a website on the side somewhat challenging. One of my favorite passions; reading, has all but disappeared. I used to burn through a complete novel in a couple of weeks and now I'm lucky to get one done in a couple of months. Fortunately, digital media and portable electronics have made written content more accessible through audible means. In audible formats unabridged books can be consumed while performing other tasks almost as quickly as the traditional page turning method. I find that I can burn through a book while driving or completing one of the many items on that 'honey do' list.

With the demanding lives that many people now lead, the adoption of digital media, portable electronics and lower production costs, we are witnessing the perfect storm brewing for the audio book media industry. Although the industry has seen double digit percentage growth in recent years, I don't believe we have seen the surge for audio book demand like we saw with the recent growth in e-books. I think one of the main challenges the industry faces, is consumer education. Most people are completely unaware of incredible pricing now available through distributors like audible.com. Now customers can purchase any abridged or unabridged book from over 150,000 titles for less than $15 each. The now one billion dollar industry will expand exponentially as the general public realizes these options are available. Original article here: http://geeknutz.com/2013/12/07/audio-book-cornucopia
