Audible, the audiobook service owned by Amazon, has discontinued its daily audio digests of stories from The New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Washington Post. The New York Times is testing a new audio product of its own. Audible’s newspaper audio digests featured human narrators reading a selection of stories from each newspaper. Audible’s New York Times Audio Digest launched in February 1999, almost a year before Amazon made its first strategic investment in Audible. The Times digests ended on Dec. 31, the Journal on Nov. 30, and the Post on Nov. 13.
