TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR AUDIOBOOKS
When it comes to media, your PC has everything covered, right? There’s Kodi, Plex, or Emby for starters, managing your music, movies, and TV with aplomb. Except there’s something missing…
Everyone loves a good story, and audiobooks (along with radio-style dramatisations) provide an easy way to devour books when focused on other tasks, whether driving long distances or tweaking your PC’s hardware. The obvious place to go for an audiobook fix is Audible, but it ties you into a proprietary ecosystem that requires you to purchase your books outright via one-off fees or a recurring subscription. Furthermore, you’re indebted to Audible’s own apps and servers for accessing your books. That’s fine if you’re a fan of paying for streaming services, but the likes of Plex, along with audio-only services such as Logitech Media Server, enable you to stay in complete control of your media, so why shouldn’t that be the case with audiobooks? There’s no reason. You can incorporate your audiobook collection into existing streaming services, but none of them quite hits the mark. Which is where we come in to help!.
In this exhaustive guide, we’ll start by bringing all your audiobooks – whether CD, free downloads, or purchased through Audible – under one roof. You’ll rip CDs exactly the way you want your books divided up, then tag your files consistently (complete with high-quality embedded artwork) to make browsing, managing, and listening to audiobooks a pleasure.
