Cowon and Audible Compatibility?? Are Audible audiobooks compatible with the Cowon J3 32Gb device?

Yes I believe so. I've never tried it but when I plug my J3 into the computer and open it there is an Audible file folder. I think when I purchased it there may have been a free audible trial in there but that was a couple years ago.

I don't use proprietary software. Under win7 and win 8.1 it is automatically USB recognised and I simply drag and drop MP3 songs and audiobooks. Best solution I have found for simple audiobooks when walking. Tried phone/ipod/iriver and others.... sansa wins hands down. Cheers. P.S. This is my 3rd in 5 years.

They are both excellent products, but yes. The Cowon J3 has superior sound to Microsoft's Zune HD.

Haven't used it with AudioBooks, but there is an option under Music for "Audio Book". I upgraded my firmware to 2.01US, so you may have to upgrade your firmware if the option isn't there.

Not sure Carolyn..only using for music. Bluetooth works great. Never thought of audio books.. Bru

Absolutely! I use Audible.com and love the way everything loads to my ITunes app to put on the IPod.

I have copied numerous books from CD into ITunes and then synced them to my IPod. I assume that copying Audible books is similar. Check out this page: http://www.audible.com/dc

I finally purchased with cowon d2 and am very happy. I listen to audiobooks on it and it can bookmark, but play the next track after the bookmarked track (extremely important).I had the creative zen for awhile and returned it as it didn't have as many features as the d2.If you have any questions about the d2, please feel free to ask.

Yes indeed! I tested a bunch of different programs and they all worked fine inclusing Audible. :)

As long as the Chrome Book has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack these speakers should function without any issue! :)

Yes, they do play audible books, with one exception - the Version 1 Sansa e260 does not work with the audible .aa file DRM format file. If you buy new, you should get a Version 2 and those work with audible files. If you are buying used or refurbished, verify whether it is V1, V2 - or it might be the Rhapsody version. Having said that, if you are internet search savvy, you can figure out how to get the V1 to work.

Hi Larry - I am also looking for mp3 player for audiobooks from NetLibrary - Do you know if Sansa has bookmarking feature? How did you narrow your choices to Sansa? Thanks for your help. Willow

Yes, but only downloaded through a computer with ITunes. Check out Audible app on ITunes.

Sorry...I can't help you there..only use it with my Ipod Touch skiing. I'm sure it would work great with Audiobooks...great sound quality, and only $25!, I've tried other speakers (Sony, JVC, ), Altec Lansing is the "most bang for the buck"...I would recommend it all day long

Mark, I am sorry but I don't know. I never put an audio book on it. FYI it holds over 200 mp3 format songs. One thing I don't like about it is shuffle play does not work, even when the shuffle mode is activated. I hope this helps.

Maybe! You need to know what format your audiobook is in. A true audiobook will have an extension of ".m4b" which I have not tested. This is a special "flavor" of the mpeg-4 standard. It has samples of James Patterson's books, which are in the mp3 format that it will play. So if your audiobook is in the mp3 format it will play. It does also play e-books, which are not the same thing.
