Thanks to the incredible developers at both audible-cli (https://github.com/mkb79/audible-cli/) and the amazing ffmpeg team, I can recover the books I bought at Audible, before I learned about LibroFM.

That means I can download/liberate my DRM encumbered audiobooks and place them in Audiobookshelf (an amazing program that @peribotsarah introduced me to). It's a bit of a slow process, but at least I have them.

Now I only download books from Libro.fm, which is a DRM-free audiobook online bookstore, but there are sometimes books that aren't available from there, leaving me with a very uncomfortable choice, either buying a DRM-encumbered book and supporting DRM, or not buying the book at all, which deprives me of the enjoyment.

Free Software/Free Culture folks, what do you do in this situation?

btw my worksona is still adoptable!  

i do most things software related, primarily backend and bare metal embedded, with any language that's good for its job (rust is my fav tho)

i need full remote work (health reasons)

i've got a bunch of rather diverse tech skills and knowledge; software ofc, but also electronics hardware, cad, product design, r&d stuff, running server infrastructure...
