My wife has quite a few audiobooks from audible. Is there a way to download, convert these into DRM free files for totally legitimate reasons? (lemmy.jamestrey.com)

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 m4b format.

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 🤣
