I happily pay for Audible. It is probably the one Amazon service I truly appreciate. That said I think I should have the right to archive the library DRM free given that I have already paid for it. I don't think this should be considered piracy at all.
I doubt they really care, there's still a way (to my knowledge) to download audiobooks from audible to mp3. You have to dig a bit to find the option from what i remember. This just makes it easier and in chapterized .m4b goodness.
If anyone is into selfhosting things I recommend audiobookshelf if you want to self host and stream audiobooks. Such a cool project!
Oohh, is there a synology client? I have to look it up.
Oh yeah, it'll work fine on any truenas/unraid/synology system it works on about anything with docker/linux there's even a beta for windows.
My only complaint is a lack of URLbase so setting up a reverse proxy on some setups does not work well.
I run everything through a Tailscale intranet, so that should not be a problem.
+1 to audiobookshelf, it's an amazing project! My wife loves it too, she can browse through the collection and listen to whatever without having to look through a bunch of folders and whatnot. I recently added my brother and mother to the server and they have appreciated it too!
