          Thanks for the IPA script. I prefer it over trying to use english sounds to describe it.

                  This is the first time I have to pronounce something with both the ö and the ü and I must say that was pretty difficult.

                    Horbucher was plural? why?

                      I got it wrong, too. "Das Hörbuch" is the singular form, I guess in plural becomes "(die) Hörbucher"

                          Why "mag"? Why not "mage'?

                              Does 'Hörbücher' also mean 'podcasts'?

                                No, the German for podcast is "der Podcast".
