Audible offers a 30-day free trial and monthly subscriptions to access its audiobooks library. You’ll need a subscription to access each matchup’s audio feed, priced at $2.99 per month, or $19.99 annually at the time of publication. It’s a worthwhile fee if you’re a fan of this national pastime, as you’ll never miss a pitch from Opening Day to the time the last out is made in the World Series. The free version of the Spotify music service is ad-supported. It only allows you to skip a certain number of songs in a given time period. Spotify Premium removes all advertisements and grants unlimited skips and, in some cases, higher quality audio for a monthly fee. It is powered by ad revenue, with an optional monthly fee required to remove commercials and unlock the ability to skip and replay tunes as often as you like. A 30-day trial lets you take the Pandora Plus subscription for a test drive before deciding whether you want to buy it. Overcast Premium can be purchased at a yearly fee, which removes all advertisements. The NPR One app helps you create a customized flow of news and stories that cater to your specific interests, including noteworthy events from your local area. The app and everything within it is ad-driven and free. You can also create personalized stations or listen to podcasts through the app, all available at no charge. Paid subscriptions allow more flexibility, lifting the song skip limit, and letting you save and replay songs heard on the radio.
