What it does
OpenAudible manages an Audible library and supports downloading, playback and conversion to MP3 or M4B. Conversion and splitting require a purchased license.
Use the library view to inspect your owned titles before preparing a backup. The trial and paid conversion features are different entitlements. This is third-party library software rather than Amazon’s official player; account compatibility and permitted file use need checking against your own Audible terms and local requirements.
The catalogue can export to Excel, CSV or JSON, which is useful for an inventory even before choosing conversion. The listed desktop hosts are Windows, Mac and Linux; backup and playback still depend on the third-party tool’s account compatibility.
