What do you use to listen to these audiobooks? I've downloaded a copy of my favorite series but no idea what to use to listen to them. I prefer something with some kind of cloud sync between devices but it's not required and I'm fine self hosting that data in like Google drive or something.

So I got this set up tonight and holy shit. A little confusing at first and currently only available when I'm at home but that's fine since I can download them like I normally do anyway. But holy shit. It's Plex for audiobooks. I'm sure there is more for me to do but I'm blown away just from start.

Only question I still have it how the hell did I get the ebooks... I don't think I have those downloaded but I can just open the ebook right from the audiobook page.

It's a fine piece of software indeed :)

I don't use the ebook feature, but you could check the files in the media folder.

Yeah I checked the next day. Apparently that download came with like 3 different versions of each book in ebook format. So freaking cool. Got me to cancel my audible sub finally 😂 now I just need to get into a good site for audiobooks and stuff. Thank you again.

I have used cloudbeats and it works pretty well.
