The Asia Pacific Audiobooks Market should witness market growth of 26.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2028).
If there is no voice from the author in the content on different mediums, then there is no guide for the audience to adhere to across the various transmedia, and they will lose interest quickly. Since audiobooks are primarily listened to digitally today, audio publishers occasionally look for audio-specific elements from the author's platform, such as a broadcast or radio show host, before acquiring that title. Giamatti's cameo performance alone elevated the audiobook's reputation even more.
Similar to book readers, podcast listeners are more likely to choose to consume the book in the medium with which they are most comfortable, which supports the audio marketing team's decision to target My Favorite Murder enthusiasts. By targeting podcast listeners, publishers have a greater chance of persuading consumers to listen to an audiobook chapter rather than a podcast episode.
While the narration is a crucial aspect of any audiobook, the established platform and the ability to target listeners through the podcast were crucial to the success of Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered. Audiobooks are distributed in any audio format available, but primarily on records, cassette tapes, CDs, MP3 CDs, downloadable digital formats, Windows Media Audio, and Advanced Audio Coding, and solid-state preconfigured digital devices in which the audio content is preloaded and listed alongside a hardware device.
