Hi Andy.

The big problem with Audible is that it only works on certain devices.  Its all 
very well if you have the latest IPod and can play enhanced format books, but 
if your a Nokia phone user who wants to enjoy their audible library in cd 
quality, there's no way of doing this other than manually converting the title 
using Sound Taxi as Nokia phone support is limited to formats 3 and 4 only.  
Sad but Audible wont consider working on improving their offering to Nokia 
users, even those with the very latest Nokia smartphones.

All the best, Ibrahim.

  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 -

    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.

    Thanks,
    Clive

    Hi Sharon.

     

    In a word, no, this isn't possible.

     

    All the best, Ibrahim.

      Hi,

       

      Does anyone know if there is a way Sound Taxi can stop converting a file, 
and continue where it left off later on, such as the next day.

       

      Thanks.

       

      Sharon
