Libation: Liberate your Library
Audible audiobook manager
The good
- Import library from audible, including cover art
- Download and remove DRM from all books
- Download accompanying PDFs
- Add tags to books for better organization
- Powerful advanced search built on the Lucene search engine
- Customizable saved filters for common searches
- Open source
- Tested on US Audible only. Should theoretically also work for Canada, UK, Germany, and France
The bad
- Windows only
- Several known speed/performance issues
- Made by a programmer, not a designer so the goals are function rather than beauty. And it shows
The ugly
- Documentation? Yer lookin' at it
- This is a single-developer personal passion project. Support, response, updates, enhancements, bug fixes etc are as my free time allows
- I have a full-time job, a life, and a finite attention span. Therefore a lot of time can potentially go by with no improvements of any kind
Disclaimer: I've made every good-faith effort to include nothing insecure, malicious, anti-privacy, or destructive. That said: use at your own risk.
I made this for myself and I want to share it with the great programming and audible/audiobook communiites which have been so generous with their time and help.
