Audible is not ideal since you don't "own" the content.... But you do get a monthly credit that can be spent as you wish. Books go on sale a lot. Most importantly, the quality of the readers is far and away better than other places I've tried. Reading aloud is truly an art form and is valuable for the listener... at least in my case!

Is there a β€œself custodial” version of audible?

I want to listen to more audiobooks, but I don’t want to spend money on content I don’t own.

I don't know how that could be done without just open sourcing the content for free and soliciting donations. Purchasing digital content doesn't work without kicking it down on the platform so it can't be pirated, right? That's the reasoning anyway.

The best way would be v4v so audiobook producers could still get paid.

I did a couple audiobooks for the school I lead in that format, set up with option to stream sats.

There are others doing similar things with material that is no longer copyrighted.
