Audible will let you return audiobooks. They aren’t drm-free but with ffmpeg and the script to find your activation bits that can be removed. I couldn’t get this to work: https://github.com/inAudible-NG/audible-activator But had success using: https://github.com/inAudible-NG/tables

You can use this to get your activation bytes from Audible servers: https://github.com/inAudible-NG/audible-activator Or this, to crack the activation bytes in an existing .aax file, offline: https://github.com/inAudible-NG/tables Both methods are easy. It's then a case of using FFmpeg with an -activation_bytes parameter to convert to MP3 or whatever (or just remux into an M4A/M4B without transcoding). Tutorial here: https://www.kylepiira.com/2019/05/12/how-to-break-audible-dr... There are a bunch of other tools (both commercial and free) which use the above techniques but add either a nice CLI or GUI. The original was Inaudible itself, which can be found on your favourite torrenting site. Alternatively you can grab it from here, but I'm not sure how up-to-date it is: https://github.com/rmcrackan/inAudible

1. Download your own AAX files (using the Audible download manager or search around for some ways to do it w/o the download manager). 2. Find out your 'activation keys' using ffprobe and the inAudible-NG project, see instructions here: https://github.com/inAudible-NG/tables/blob/master/README.md. Needs to be done only once for your Audible account. 3. Use ffmpeg with --activation_bytes to convert AAX to MP3 or other formats, either directly or with a nice script like this one that'll divide into chapters: https://github.com/KrumpetPirate/AAXtoMP3 OpenAudible looks like a nice tool that'll automate all of these steps for you.
