There are three types of audio materials that you can listen to on your Kindle. You can 

purchase, transfer, and listen to audiobooks from Audible.com, transfer MP3 files from 

your computer to play as background music while you read, or turn on Text-to-Speech 

in your reading material (where allowed by the rights holder).  (For information about 

transferring audiobooks or MP3 files from your computer to your Kindle, see Chapter 

8.)

On your Home screen, your audiobooks list the title and author, but they also have the 

word "audio" next to the title to indicate that they are audiobooks. To listen to one of 

your audiobooks, select it from your Home screen. You will see a page similar to the 

one shown below. Kindle provides a standard set of controls that are explained below.
