My Question or Issue

The audiobook A Sound So Very Loud: The Inside Story of Every Song Oasis Recorded will not play, and there are no chapters or runtime listed. I have had no issues with audiobooks before, and have contacted the publisher to see what they can do. https://open.spotify.com/show/4ZnL8iSyQhKiVoNoSHVOmA?si=oPQs6hnkSTSMMM2ip9-qWQ

Hey @darth26,

 

Thanks for reaching out to report this.

 

The audiobook might no longer be available, so if it's appearing on your end, try some basic troubleshooting like logging out and back in a couple of times or clean reinstalling the app.

 

If the audiobook is still not playing but showing up as available, let us know and we'll forward this to the relevant team.

 

Cheers,

Thanks for replying, I have tried that and the audiobook still will not play but still shows as available, so I would greatly appreciate it if you could forward it to the relevant team please.

@MihailY Hi again, is there any update from the relevant team yet regarding this audiobook issue as it is still not playing? Thanks for your help so far 

Hey @darth26

Same problem here. The audiobook is showing as available but won’t play or download.

Hey @thehorse1

 

Thanks for getting in touch about this here in the Community. 

 

Just to confirm, are you referring to the same podcast or a different one? If you're referring to a different one, make sure to follow all the steps @MihailY sent previously and if they don't work, send us the podcast's URI and we'll take a closer look. 

 

We'll be on the lookout for your reply.
