edit: Libation apps needs you to give it your amazon password and ID, it’s foss and I trust it. (editing because seemed important)
Amazon allows you to download the book from Audible, but you need a code/password or something like that to read it. Libation can basically convert these encrypted files into decrypted mp3 files by getting this code from the website, I am pretty sure you can get it too. So, my question is, why aren’t there more pirates pirating audiobooks? Why isn’t every audiobook on audible available online for free?
I mean, many are, but why is it not more prevalent?
I like to add a step back in, where I rip the audiobook and then return the rental to the library. Others get to listen, and I have a copy for whenever I actually get around to listening to it :-)
I do this with ebooks from them. Just download the epub, strip the DRM, return immediately so someone else can read it and i have my DRM-free offline copy for whenever i have time to read it.
How does one rip from Libby? The analog hole?
It’s gotten harder lately, the old app would just straight let you download mp3 files by chapter. It’s a bit more complicated now.
I believe this is what I used last time. https://github.com/chbrown/overdrive
