I know audible dot com needs win to use I AAlmost any of those formats will work for us. I've used pdb, lit, and pdf as well as standard mp3 formats. The easiest by far is to download the pdb formats from fictionwise, (since they're not encrypted as they are directly from f&sf) then run a script on it to convert it back to text, then use any reader you like. I'd give you the name of the package I use, but I can't think of it at the moment. I'll dig it up next time I'm on the linux box, and send it along.
