Yep, but it's naive to think we have no idea what the plans might be. The fact that Audible is doing this at all suggests it wants to make more money, and all subscription businesses raise prices eventually. What is introduced as a basic plan with advertising can easily be rebranded as the standard plan in the future, with the standard plan being rebranded as a premium ad-free plan with a higher price. It's only a matter of time.
