Exploring DRM-free audiobook liberation and self-hosting options

Audible and Amazon have potentially restricted independent media outlets, but Audible ensures payment to authors. To liberate audiobooks from Audible's DRM, the app called libation can help in downloading files in DRM-free formats like MP3 or AAX.
