Some books automatically come with Audible, which doesn't use MP3, it's a proprietary format of a recording.
No, you are mistaken. If you look at my first post you will see the picture showing that voice view is turned off. I tried voice view once and it was an awful experience.
This tts is a nice experience, it has a sleep timer, speed from 0.5x-3x… and it’s not some secret Audible file masquerading as tts.

I don’t think Amazon even bothers trying to run an Audible branch in China.

This is standalone TTS on a kindle pw4 and it only works on books in the KFX format and with ASINs of books I have purchased. It’s not some other thing that works on any old book you download from the internet, if it was I would have never bothered asking the question.
