I'm guessing not legal at all as audible is generally a subscription service or you buy books individually through it, doing it this way could bypass most of their security measures Jack Jack Goodfellow Access Technology Coordinator Greater Manchester Action Team Action for Blind People Tel: 0161 787 9252 ________________________________ From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of ANDY COLLINS Sent: 24 November 2010 10:45 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Sound Taxi Question Hi Clive - It's an audio file format conversion programme, I have it, and am not a fan, I bought it to convert Audible content to MP3, but I could only get it to convert in real time, so it took hours to convert anything. Now I have the Audible software on my phone, I no longer have need for this kind of conversion. As far as I know though, Sound Taxi is the only software that makes it possible to create a hard copy of Audible books, through it's slow conversion. Not sure how legal this is, as Audible files are protected HTH - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Clive.Lever@xxxxxxxxxxx To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2010 10:31 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Sound Taxi Question Hello all, I'm fairly new to the list, and until I jumped into the middle of the thread, I'd never heard of Sound Taxi. Please can someone explain what it does? You may wish to explain off list so as not to bug those who don't need to go through what to them will be old news.
