(Sorry, hit Send too soon).
The above points to a commercial tool under MacOS or Windows, that
enables conversion to iTunes format or burning to a (virtual) CD. Quite
painful and expensive, though it should work under a VM in Fedora. I
haven't tried it. Audible is smart enough to keep their monthly
subscription rate low enough that I always have spare credits and don't
need to go the dark side:-)
Of course there are completely free audiobooks athttp://www.openculture.com/freeaudiobooks
though the quality is variable.

That gives me an idea, I have an old iPhone here that I can connect to
my wifi system and probably download an app for that and use it. But to
be useful I would really need to transfer them to a thumb drive and have
them play on my audio-book player. I wouldn't want to listen on the
iPhone or even this fedora computer. I'll try that in a bit.
Thanks for your consultation,
Bob
