The way we see it, storytelling used to be simple. Someone spoke. Someone listened.

Then somewhere along the line, technology actually made it more complicated. Cumbersome collections of cassettes, CDs and internet downloads with competing digital formats were all thrust between the storyteller and listener. And for awhile, it seemed as if listening would forever remain difficult.

Then one day, a group of relentless innovators decided to make listening to a story simple again by building an audio book that would actually play itself. It would come with a story already on it. A battery to make it play. And earphones for people to listen. Wherever they were. Whenever they wanted.

The result is Playaway. The first-ever, self-playing digital audio book. And with it, we hope everyone will listen happily ever after.
