What is Booksonic?

Booksonic is a server and Android client designed for audiobooks. It uses the Subsonic Server to allow users to host and access their personal audiobook collection from any location. It can manage large collections and supports any audio or video format that can stream over HTTP. With transcoder plug-ins, it can convert and stream almost any audio format. For users with bandwidth limits, Booksonic can set a maximum limit for the bitrate of the streams, automatically resampling to an appropriate bitrate. It runs efficiently on various platforms like Windows, Mac, Linux, and Unix variants due to its Java technology.
