3.8 Listening to Audio Materials
There are three types of audio materials that you can listen to on your Kindle. You can
purchase, transfer, and listen to audiobooks from Audible.com, transfer MP3 files from
your computer to play as background music while you read, or turn on Text-to-Speech
in your reading material (where allowed by the rights holder). (For information about
transferring audiobooks or MP3 files from your computer to your Kindle, see Chapter
Audiobooks
On your Home screen, your audiobooks list the title and author, but they also have the
word "audio" next to the title to indicate that they are audiobooks. To listen to one of
your audiobooks, select it from your Home screen. You will see a page similar to the
one shown below. Kindle provides a standard set of controls that are explained below.
