How can I sell an audiobook (or audio content) on iTunes?

0 replies
I want to take information that students need to memorize for exams, record it in audio format and then sell it on iTunes. Students could then download it and listen to the audio on their iPod, etc.

Think of it like an audio version of Cliff Notes.

My problem is I can't seem to find a way to get it on iTunes.

There seems to be no way to sell an audiobook. It seems the only way to get an audiobook on iTunes is through a company called ACX, but they want you to have published the book (which I haven't, there isn't a book just the audio) and you need to be a US resident (I'm Australian).

I thought I could publish it as a CD using a service like CDBaby, but they put a limit on how many tracks you can include and how long it can go for (I've got around 2 hours of audio, and around 100 tracks - way over their limit).

I could make it a podcast, but Apple forces you to give podcasts away for free and I want to charge (not much, like $1?).

I guess I could get someone to develop an app that's only function was to play my audiobook, but surely there's a better option...

Any suggestions?
