Never tried audio books, but I'd like to try it out. I work third shift with headphones for eight hours a day. My headphones have skip forward, backward, and play/pause functions.
I was hoping to find an app where the forward and backwards buttons skip a couple seconds instead of entire chapters.
Free would be preferred, but I'd be interested in paying if it provides good features.
Thanks in advance!

Hey, is there a website an app for free audio books, where it's possible to download them?
Librivox - thousands of free audiobooks - thats the good news.
The bad news is that they are all "public domain" that means they are books that were published at least 40 years ago. Also, the readers are volunteers.
The good news is that most of the great classics, in all genres, are usually at least that old so there is plenty of good material to listen to. And although some of the readers are not so good, many of them are people aspiring to become professional readers (for audible and the like) and use this service to practice and build up a portfolio so there are some really good readers amongst them.
