Stephanie (quiltsrme) | 143 comments I know this link is somewhere here. I just can't find it. I'm looking for the link that gives you a list of all the kindle ebooks that have whispersync audiobooks available.

If you scroll down you will see a link that says Find You Audio Companions.

Hope this is what you were looking for.

I have pages and pages of matches. I've picked up a few, but I'm trying to hold off for books in my TBR pile so I can reduce that mountain to maybe a hill.

Oooh...thanks! Found a couple that I could add audio to for less than $4.

Erica (RicoRedd) | 86 comments I discovered Whispersync 2 months ago and I’ve been addicted ever since. I haven’t used a credit in 2 months! My books are averaging around $3.00-$4.00 each. Whispersync is awesome. Initially I thought it was strange to purchase a Kindle version when I exclusively listen to the audio but not now I love it. I wish my Amazon recommendations would show whispersync recommendations since that’s all I purchase it would make it easier to find the books I’m likely to purchase.

Lilmissmolly | 83 comments Thank you for the link! Why are some matches as low as $1.99, but others as high at $12.99? I agree most are $2.99-3.99, but I'm curious why some are so high? I don't think "size" is really the issue as most of these are trade paperbacks.

Ruth Ferguson (ruthdfw) | 93 comments Thanks for this --- a small group of my books count. I did not understand this so I ignored the option ---- good to know.

I think that the publishers play a role in setting the prices and that is why there is such a variation...

Stephanie (quiltsrme) | 143 comments Thanks. I actually don't use it as a whispersync. I either listen to audiobooks exclusively, or if it is complicated, I read and listen at the same time (brain injury). My Mom, who has hearing problems, reads the kindle versions.

Depends on the contract wording by the copyright owner with Amazon. I think you will see many of these deals disappear in the next year or so as contracts expire because these copyright owners didn't know Amazon was going to screw them over to promote Whispersync. WE have benefited, but the gravy train won't last. Still, the discounts with whispersync, even at $12.99 is less than I pay for a credit a month with a membership.
