The study of foreign and domestic scientific research allowed us to conclude that mass digitalization and the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the spread of audio publishing and had a direct impact on the decrease in the frequency of buying printed books. The majority of domestic readers prefer free audiobooks, and also often interact with unlicensed content since the culture of buying digital and audiobooks is not developed in Ukraine. Unlicensed content slows down the development of the audio market, but it stimulates the population to become familiar with the literature and affects the growth of the readership. Children choose Ukrainian books more Ukrainian-language literature is increasing. The aspect of illegal distribution of content was considered both from the negative side — such resources worsen the state of the online publication market, and from the positive side — they stimulate the development of reading and contribute to the increase of the audience of listeners. Currently, there is an increase in the number of citizens who choose literature in the Ukrainian language. It was determined that children prefer Ukrainian-language works more often than adults. In addition, the types of reading of audio publications were highlighted, including professional, amateur, author's recordings, and automatic reading of works, and a drawback of audiobooks was identified — it is the author's way of reading, which sometimes does not meet the listener's expectations. Popular foreign projects are Audible, Google Audiobooks, Librivox, Kobo Audiobooks, and Downpour. The largest sound library in the world is Audible. Characteristic features of foreign audio platforms are the high cost of publications, the popularity of subscription services, as well as the presence of monthly bonuses for the purchase of books. The number of platforms with audiobooks is actively increasing in Ukraine. Popular domestic projects are "ABUK", 4Read, "Likhtar", Lingart and Yakaboo. Each of the projects has its characteristics, and in general, they are mainly characterized by books in the Ukrainian language, synchronization of works on different devices, and the availability of free audio editions.
