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 believe there do exist places where you can get a virtual library card without living there. New York Public Library is what comes to mind, but don’t quote me on that.

That’s only for New York residents, unless you’re a teen looking to read banned books this year in particular.

Ah shoot, I don’t know then. I thought there was something but maybe it’s some sort of policy that limits cardholders to just residents.

Unless the policy changed recently: Brooklyn doesn’t require a NY address. I had a Brooklyn card for years, but have never lived in NY. It was about $50 a year.
