I have checked my directories and everything (I did change the script but only to reflect the correct directories and to remove the auto-delete). Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks! Hello,

After following your tutorial, I was up and running with a much faster (and easier) way to convert my Audible .aa files to MP3s. Great info! I have successfully burned them to DVD (for my car) and transferred them to my Zune HD. Thanks again! Thank you, Rod!

I drive about 50K miles a year (seriously) and wanted to listen to my audible books only to find out my Chrysler T&C audio system wouldn't play the .aa files. So, I had to use a small mp3 player and patch it to the system. But now, I can have the freedom of using my mp3 files wherever I want. btw, anyway to expand the code to use another program to merge the mp3 files? The book I did created 64 of them. Rod -

Have you considered using D2 Cowon? I have the same thing against Itunes, and I can plug in my Cowon and it works exactly like a USB device AND audible books can be downloaded directly without conversion! Thanks for posting this!
