While it's technically an Amazon company, Audible is not included with a Prime membership, so you'll have to sign up for it separately. Once you do, however, you'll gain access to more than 470,000 audiobook titles (and counting).

The company says that Audible Plus will offer more 11,000 titles, including audiobooks, podcasts and original content, but subscribers will have to upgrade to Audible Premium Plus for access to its full catalog of 550,000 titles.
