If you are happy in the Amazon ecosystem and want to stay with their Fire devices, you would look at the Fire HD 8". Amazon says that these tablets are not compatible with Google Playstore but there seem to be several workarounds for installing it. Personally, I would prefer a higher resolution display but 1280x800 seems to be okay with quite a few people.
Currently, in Canada the Fire HD 8 is on sale for $85 Cdn. Not sure what it would be in the US market.

I'm now looking at Kobo, but don't know about the audio thing yet. I'm hoping I don't have to buy another device beside my e-reader, but I really am liking the Kobo color.
Not jumping into it like I used to, so will wait til I weigh out as many pros and cons as I can, denise
