For audio books this has already be done: https://us.tonies.com/

It is a walled garden ecosystem, though.

Walled gardens suck, so I built this for audiobooks and kid-story podcasts for my kids. No tonies for us, and my kids have way more control over what they listen to. Same base setup with the reader, just different media sources and player targets.
