Spotify's catalog of audiobooks just got a whole lot bigger. The streamer has signed a new deal with Ingram Content Group (ICG), who have the distribution rights for a lot of smaller publishers and independent publishers; according to the firm, "if you're reading a book, Ingram Content Group is probably behind it."
The deal is a significant one because some of the most interesting books published don't necessarily come from the industry giants. According to Duncan Bruce, director of audiobook partnerships and licensing at Spotify, the deal is "part of our goal to bring more independent authors to Spotify to get their books heard through our Audiobooks in Premium offering".
