My wife is paying for audible. I want to be able to share the books she’s bought. She generally only buys books we can’t otherwise fine, so this may be valuable.
It costs like $20 I think, but completely worth it. It connects to your audible account, syncs the books locally, then rips out the drm and converts them to the open source
m4bformat.Then you can and should create torrents for them, so others can seed.
This is the only method out of maybe a dozen I have tried over the years that worked for me. Well worth the money
Ya it works very well. I’m surprised there aren’t more people doing this and creating torrents for them. We need to get the entire amazon library on torrents 🤣
I used to rip Amiga game soundtracks by putting a tape recorder near the TV speaker. This will work for any DRM content :) Obviously it is lossy, you would need a recorder of some form and it will take a long time for audiobooks. My tape deck had a turbo feature… you could try playing audiobooks faster and then reduce the speed of the recording if such option exists.
If you have a computer with line-in input this will work better than acoustic-coupling :)

- To host them, either internally or externally so that you and your wife can access them from your webbroswer, or phone apps with offline listening and syncing, etc - https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf
