Playster Review
Playster is more than just an audiobook and ebook subscription platform — it’s an all-encompassing entertainment service that gives you access to millions of books, movies, and TV shows, music and more. It takes all of your entertainment needs and provides them in one place.
The Gist
Playster strides itself on affordability — providing unlimited access to audiobooks, ebooks, movies, and more at as low as $3.95 a month. Why? Because they feel that we’re overpaying for entertainment. Their flexible plans are unlike other audiobook subscriptions because Playster also offers music subscriptions and movie subscriptions. Their mantra is “Entertainment Unlimited,” and they provide just that. Based in Montreal, this company was founded in 2014 and also has offices in the United States and United Kingdom.

Take Note
Their catalog is extensive, but does not have similar shows and movies to Hulu or streaming services. If you’re looking to watch a particular show or movie, make sure to check their catalog at play.playster.com to see if their options are what you’re looking for in an entertainment service. Their audiobook and ebook catalog is much more extensive, but be careful — there are two separate audiobook plans. Their $14.95 plan gives you access to their basic catalog with 100,000+ titles, whereas a premium account ($29.95) gives you access to all of their 140,000+ audiobooks.
