i use booklibconnect if I want it to automatically do my entire library, and then inAudible for individual books after the fact. does this have a better interface or something? there's also aaxconverter
Does a peice of software exist like this for spotify?
Bandcamp
Nice to see Patchy the Pirate holding up well
So if I get the audible subscription will I be able to download any audiobook or will it only work on books I've purchased and/or montly adds onto the higher tier sub?
You can download the books you buy with credits, and also anything currently in the Plus catalogue. I've found this very helpful as they remove things from the Plus catalog with very short notice periods, so you may not get to finish books you start. (And I remember stuff like how Salman Rushdie books were removed when he was in the news from the assassination attempt. Maybe that was publishers seeing dollar signs not Amazon, idk, but it was gross. Same when Sean Lock died.)
You need to own the licence.
c/piracy the place where you have to pay for things
Surprised no one has mentioned OpenAudible. https://openaudible.org/
IMHO a paid and closed source program shouldn't have "open" in their name
Sure, but this wasn't an open source discussion. I really enjoy the software, if there are FOSS alternatives I'd be down to switch for sure.
Is it just me, or does this pirate look like Network Chuck?
Unrelated, but I would have preferred a stolen, watermarked Getty Images photo rather an an AI-generated one. Fits the pirate vibe better to have blatantly and unabashedly stolen something than to indirectly do so with plausible deniability.
a lot of people who don't understand how AI works think it's using stolen images so it's close enough for me
I understand AI well enough. The argument that companies training models on data with copyright were actually doing piracy holds true to me. Being in favor or against, since these are big corps using artists work without paying royalties is an open discussion maybe, but nonetheless.. I felt that a clarification was due. Sorry (or not) to open the offtopic hatch...
Seconded
Just to commenting to keep the knowledge: There are other projects that can de-drm audible. Amazon probably knows this and tolerates it. In fact, a long time ago all downloads on Linux did not have DRM. Those days are gone, but this https://github.com/mkb79/audible-cli should work.
As soon as you have 'activation bytes' many tools can play and convert the downloads.
Thank you for sharing 🙏
Fantastic piece of software! It's important to make backups if you use Audible as they can and will remove your paid books at will/randomly. Always keep a local copy - and consider checking your local library, they might have your next audiobook for free!
Yeah, that's totally what skull and bones look like, thanks AI.
The dangly-but-not-dangling bits of the bracelet bangles appear to be attempting to tunnel into his tattoos. Gravity and anatomy: shit AI doesn't understand.
Also the headphones have two cables on one side
