I tried a couple of times to find certain audiobooks, but seldomly had luck. There just does not seem to be a place that sells digital versions of audiobooks, similar to how bandcamp sells music.

And even putting on my eye patch and throwing out my fishing net I was not able to find a place to get them.

I do not want to use a subscription service, especially if it's part of amazon.

Therefore it seems buying a CD and ripping it is the only option left.

I'd like to know as well. Amazon pays artists and book author pennies. Books are easier to find or order local but there seems to be a complete Monopoly on audiobooks by Audible (aka Amazon)
