In February, Spotify made an exciting (and a bit unusual) move when it entered the world of physical book sales. As of this week, the new feature is officially live in the U.S. and the U.K., allowing users to purchase physical books through the Spotify app.
This collaboration is with Bookshop.org, an online marketplace dedicated to supporting local, independent bookstores. On audiobook pages within the app, users will now see a button labeled “Get a copy for your bookshelf.” Clicking this button directs them to Bookshop’s website, which manages pricing, inventory, and shipping.
