Benefits of transforming MP3s into Audiobooks

How do you listen to Taylor’s songs or audio interviews in a novel way? Let’s put forward an interesting idea. Have you ever imagined to treat a song as an audiobook? Conceiving of converting mp3 to Audiobook in iTunes?

Why should I do that? Obviously there’re enticing benefits for transforming a song to an audiobook.

(1) Sometimes you’re interrupted to do something else on your smartphone when you’re in the middle of listening to a song of very long playing time. After finishing other activities and you’re back to music, you can’t locate where you were left off and have to listen to it all over again or listen to the next song. But by changing the media type of a song to an audiobook, you will be able to add a bookmarking feature to the mp3 file which allows you to stop and continue listening to the file from where you left off.
(2) Besides, audiobook format allows you to skip back or forward in 15 second intervals. When you listen to something that you want it repeated, you can just click that icon once or twice depending on how far back you want to go.
(3) Lastly, you can adjust the speed of how audiobooks play, so that they can be played faster or slower than the normal speed.
