Automatic artwork and metadata extraction keep my audiobook library organized and visually appealing. The audio filters to adjust playback speed and volume are a fantastic addition for customizing my experience. The narrator was good but spoke a bit too slowly for my taste. I had to speed it up to 1.2x which then made some parts sound slightly unnatural.
