This is what Storytel and others provide in Sweden. The price is 169 SEK per month for as much listening as you want. The English spoken assortment is quite big but uneven, there are gems there. I believe the Swedish spoken assortment is quite close to cover all there is. I subscribe to Storytel and use it mostly as background listening. It is not worth it to pay by the book.
