"I’m looking for an efficient way to enjoy Audible audiobooks on my MP3 player. Do I need to get rid of the Audible DRM restriction first? "
Audible is the world’s largest library of audiobooks. There are all kinds of digital audiobooks for us to choose from. However, it’s well-known that Audible audiobooks are protected in AA or AAX format, for which they can only be played on Audible-supported devices, such as Apple’s iPods, Microsoft Zune, Creative Zen, Amazon Kindle, etc. Therefore, if we want to listen to Audible audiobooks on MP3 player or any other non-Audible-supported devices, we’ll have to remove the DRM from Audible and convert .aa/.aax format to other DRM-free formats like MP3.
