[TUTORIAL] How to easily convert Audible AAX files to MP3 on Linux

Easily convert Audible AAX files to MP3 on Linux: https://github.com/paladini/aax2mp3-easy


If you bought audiobooks from Audible and use Linux in your daily live, you're probably in bad hands: besides Audible web player, there's no client that you can run using Ubuntu or a Linux distribution. In order to listen to your Audible stuff you can use this Web Player, but what if you don't have Internet access in the moment? In this case the best thing you can do is convert your AAX files to MP3 files, allowing you to listen to your Audible stuff using any media player at any given moment.

So you're looking for a way to convert your Audible AAX files (.aax) to MP3 files (.mp3) on Linux? There's two programs and some Python dependencies that can make it for you: Audible Activator and AAXtoMP3. The problem is that you don't have a integration between these two softwares and for those who don't have knowledge with scripts, programming or even basic Linux, using these two softwares can be little challenging.

With this people in my mind, I've made a little script that allows you to easily convert Audible .aax files to .mp3. Just download a single script, run it with the correct parameters and it's done!

You can take a look in aax2mp3-easy here. There you can find some instructions on how to download, install and use aax2mp3-easy too. If you have any problem, feel free to contact me in Github or even using the blog comments.

  4. Hello, I attempted an aax to mp3 conversion as well. Here is the log.
    christopher@crow:~/aax2mp3-easy-master$ ./aax2mp3_easy.sh whereisamerica@gmail.com @Freedom7 GeneKeysEmbracingYourHigherPurpose_ep6.aax
    Traceback (most recent call last):

    Usage: AAXtoMP3 [--flac] [--aac] [--opus ] [--single] [--level ]

    1. It is VERY bad practice to publish your email address and password for Amazon and Audible! I strongly recommend that you delete this - AND change your password
