can you share audiobooks

Hello jbk224bamacophile,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

If you have purchased the audiobook from the iTunes Store, you can transfer that content via Home Sharing, however if it is from Audible.com, Home Sharing cannot transfer that audiobook.

• Audiobooks purchased through the iTunes Store can be automatically or manually transferred.
• Home Sharing can't transfer or stream audiobook content purchased from Audible.com. See Audible.com for assistance in using their content on multiple computers.

Take care,

BELOW IS A LETTER FROM APPLE SUPPORT RECEIVED 30 MARCH 2015:

Hi Thomas,

Good day! This is Mark your iTunes Store Support Advisor. I'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Thanks for your patience. You’ve mentioned that you’re unable to download and share the audiobook "The Innovators: How a Group of Hackers, Geniuses, And Geeks Created the Digital Revolution (Unabridged)” within your Family Members.

I know how eager you are to download the audiobook on your other devices. Don’t worry I’ll provide you the information you need regarding audiobooks.

Audiobooks are device specific which means you can only use it in the device you used to purchase it.

You can refer to this article regarding the contents that you can share using Family Sharing.
