A:AnswerYes, audiobooks, movies and music is all available for purchase directly on the device through iTunes or the App Store. If you have subscriptions to Amazon prime or other streaming services you can access that content by downloading the app onto your device.
A:AnswerIt does have a 2.5mm headphone jack so an external speaker should work, I would say any speaker that has its own power supply would work best otherwise the little touch may have trouble driving the speaker. I plugged my Creative pebbles into it and it sounded great but those are powered speakers. I paired with my Ihome IBT400 bluetooth speaker and it worked great. No cable needed, pairs up using the bluetooth connection.
