App for audio revision guides for A-Level and GCSE. What do you think?

So I have an idea to launch an app or something like that where you can purchase an affordable audio recording of the study guides for GCSE's and A-levels. Honestly, that would be really useful for me as a consumer. Would that be useful to you? and is there something like this out there?

Because personally I am short on time to study and wish I could just listen to the chapters whilst on the go etc to keep info fresh. Something like audible but just for the UK students.

So please tell me what you think. I want to hear why my idea sucks and why is does not hehe?)

I used something very similar to what you’re describing called GCSE pod at gcse, but I’m not aware of anything like this that accommodates A Level. It’s a really good idea, and is definitely really beneficial to audio learners. There’s just the issue of tackling all the exam boards, and say, for English lit, being able to cover all the different text options.
