How outrageous is limiting audiobooks??

Within the application it clearly shows when certain books are "included in premium" but is it really included if you can only listen to 15 hours per month before being charged the price of a whole months subscription for another 10 hours?

Hi,

So there's basically two ways (at least from what I've seen) of having audiobooks included in a subscription. Other places seem to offer 1 credit each month to get an audiobook each month, with the option of buying more credits for more audiobooks and Spotify offers listening time each month with the option of buying more time.

Each is good for different people, the first is good if you only want listen to one audiobook a month and if that audiobook is really long but the downside is you're stuck with it for that month even if it isn't what you expected or like unless you buy more credits to get more books whereas Spotify have gone for more flexibility so that instead of being locked into one audiobook, you are free to listen to start listening to one (included in Premium is one that's available for this) and change if it isn't what you wanted and there may be shorter audiobooks so people may like listening to multiple shorter audiobooks each month instead of being locked into one, with the downside being that you then can't listen to a full audiobook that's over 15 hours unless you pay for more time or wait for the following month. 

So yeah there's pros and cons to both approaches, and both are limited because at the end of the day the writer and narrators etc all need to be paid so there's only so much you can give away without charging extra
