Scribd takes aim at Audible by adding audibooks to its subscription service

Scribd is about to give Audible a serious run for its money. Today it’s adding an audiobooks section to its ebooks subscription service, giving its customers access to more than 30,000 audiobooks as part of their existing $8.99 per month subscription. That’s a huge addition, and it’s going to make Audible’s subscribers think twice about paying $14.95 every month for only a single audiobook.
