converting audible book book.aa files to MP3 format

by bigdaddya - 11/16/06 1:18 PM

I purchased 2 audio books from audible.com but unfortunately my S1MP3 player won't play files with the .aa extension. How do I convert these files to MP3 files in order to listen to the books?

"What if I don't have a device?
You can listen to Audible audio on your PC or Mac, or burn it to CDs that will work in any standard CD player. From time to time, Audible has special offers that let you join AudibleListener for a specific period of time and in return, you'll get a deep discount on a top digital audio player, such as the Apple iPod nano."

OK, why not put it on CD and rip it?

Just got SoundTaxi software and think it is just great.
Got a new mp3 player for the weekend and was able to convert 20 Audible audiobooks to unprotected mp3's for my player! Very exited about the product. http://www.soundtaxi.info

How fast is SoundTaxi?

Does a 9-hour book take a full nine hours to copy into mp3 format, or were you able to do it faster? I couldn't get Total Recorder to do an accelerated copy on long audiobooks.

The program is likely 4x fast when converting audiobooks.
