One friend of mine purchased the Kindle Paperwhite Signature edition for it's 32GB of memory for use with audio books. They ran into the issue that Audible Canada does not support eInk Kindles. They have not finished their testing on that platform according to an email received from Audible CA a while back. My friend has since switched platforms to an ereader that supports audio playback in Canada.

I've included two quotes from emails they received from Audible Canada customer support (the second email is in response to the response to the first email asking why if Audible in the USA supports eInk Kindles, Audible Canada is unable to):

Hello <redacted>,

Thank you for contacting Audible Canada. I hope you & your loved ones are safe & healthy!

I do understand your concern that you are not able to Audible content on a Paper white using Bluetooth ear buds. I will surely assist you with this.

Please accept my sincere apology for the inconvenience this has caused to you.

At this time, "Kindle Paperwhite" is not compatible with our Audible software but we do have several other options that might work for you!

Hi <redacted>,

Thanks for contacting Audible Canada! I hope all is well and you are staying safe!

Although, Audible is a subsidiary of Amazon, however they operate separately.

At this time, Kindle is not compatible with our Audible.ca software. We are always looking to expand our compatible devices catalog but since an extensive technical testing is required to perfect the final platform it may take a bit longer then expected to release a supported platform.

We are always looking to deliver best services to our customers based upon their feedback and would really appreciate Our developing team is looking into this. As soon as we bring this to Canada, we'll let you know on the website. So, stay tuned for any updates in this regard. We are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused you.
