If I click on the "Download" button, I've got to choose to download the Apple or Android app. Maybe if I actually installed one of the apps (remember: I can't do that right now), then it would let me also stream it. Oh, Audiobooks' limited help file (just some FAQs, with answers, so far as I can tell) doesn't say anything about it.

IIRC, if you own the audiobook, when you play the book from a web browser, it plays a few minutes as a preview but then it asks if you want to continue listening. If you continue, it will play until the end.

It's been a while since I tried that, but that how I remember it working.
