Audiobook Style Guide info

• Spokenword, radio plays and podcast should likely have their own style guides.
• If writer is unknown e.g. The Bible, use the narrator as artist.
• Do not use [untitled] or [unknown] unless the track is something that requires it i.e. out of the book context
• "Unabridged" audiobooks (CD ripped as one track) likely should not be allowed
• Next disc continues from the chapter numbering, it doesn't start from 1 again (unless it is a different book).
