I've gotten a note from a long-time reader, who says that they "bought something" from Audible, expecting that they would get discs, which they could use in a CD/DVD player, and was disappointed to find that they had to listen at the desktop.

So the question for the assembled multitudes is:  Is there a way to copy the Audible book to (I assume) many discs?  And, if so, would you lay out the steps here so this reader can follow them?

Many Spanish Aunts.

As far as I know, Audible format is only readable in the Audible Player. They make a mobile version of the player for use on smart phones and the like, but I am unaware of any (legal) way to listen to an Audible audio book on any device that they haven't made a version of their software for.

I could be mistaken, _my_ inability to find any way to listen to the book where _I_ wanted too caused me to give up on Audible before I had even finished listening to the free trial story I had downloaded. There may be an option hidden somewhere that I missed, which some of your other readers may mention, and I might give Audible another try. However, I like to think I made a reasonably thorough search and I couldn't find anything.
