    Already said thanks for that - downloaded my two books. But how do I get them into MP3 format?

    Ok, just found the solution - not tried yet. But please read the linked discussion before you sign up, there may be a problem cancelling. I have yet to try.

    Ok, about a 1/4 of the way down the link I posted is this:

    "Steps:
    1. Uninstall Audible manager (no, I'm not kidding).
    1.1 NOTE: Disconnect any devices prior to uninstalling.
    1.2 NOTE: SAVE YOUR BOOKS or it will kill them too.
    2. Download Goldwave 5.06 (this is shareware, though I strongly recommend registering; it's a L337 piece). Link at end of message.
    3. Download and install LAME MP3. Goldwave keys off this open-source MP3 software to save mp3's. Link at end of message.
    4. Install Goldwave.
    5. Download and install Audible Manager 3.5. IT MUST BE v3.5! Link at end of message.
    6. Open Goldwave, then open your *.aa file.
    7. It will ask for your audible UID & PWD.
    8. Allow the file to covert.
    9. Save as MP3. Figure on about a half hour per 8 hours of audio.
    10. Burn, split, play to your hearts content."
