On the podcasts people haven't been enthusiastic about any of the new iOS stuff either other than Siri being opened to third-parties, the detection of spam calls, and the evolution of copy and paste. The new iMessage stuff isn't for any of us, but it's all just a set of buttons that are ignorable.
Audible was already optimized for commands in Windows Phone, so it doesn't surprise me that they're ready out the door. The Alexa integration has probably helped them greatly too.
The macOS stuff is interesting, it's funny that they're bringing the cluttered desktop into the mobile era and now you can sync all that mess across all your Macs. Tabs everywhere will be great.

The gold master is out for both the mac and iOS. No indications that they are rationalizing Audio books, i.e. it's still in iTunes on the Mac and iBook on iOS and there is no indications that iBook will support play next audiobook in iOS.
Ah well.
