Why aren't there more pirated audiobooks considering how easy it is to rip them from Audible? (lemmy.ml)

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?

Yes, me too. Mainly because I don't want to use the audible app.

But that's not the point, pirates are able to pirate every netflix show because netflix let's you access everything. This is not how audible works

I think I understand your meaning.

There's a cost barrier as Audible is a pay-per-item service.

I think you're running up against a wall with your 'he's not a real Scott' argument.

honestly i was never making the "you aren't a real pirate" argument, people just want to have that fight, i don't care what people are or are not. but yeah you hit on the head
