Spotify moves beyond audiobooks to offer physical books

Spotify's next bet on books isn’t digital — it's physical.

At a press event on Wednesday, Feb. 4, at Spotify's New York City headquarters, the streaming giant unveiled a slate of new book-focused features that push well beyond audiobooks. The updates include Page Match, a tool that lets readers seamlessly switch between physical or e-books and audiobooks, and a new partnership with Bookshop.org that will allow users to purchase physical books directly through the Spotify app.
