4 Simple Steps to Convert Audible AAX/AA to MP3 Format
Step 1. Download Audible Books to Your Windows or Mac
Step 1 is the relatively most complicated step. The key is to get a .aax/.aa audiobook file after download. You can only download Audible books on Windows or Mac for generating the files in AAX or AA format. If you downloaded an Audible book on your Android, what you might get is an AAXC file. None of the converters can decrypt AAXC files at this moment. So remember to download books on your computer.
- On Mac: Visit the Library page of Audible desktop site and click on “Download”.
- On Windows 8.1/8, 7: Visit the Library page of Audible desktop site, click on “Download”, and use Audible Download Manager to open the file.
- On Windows 10: Install “Audiobooks for Audible” in Microsoft Store and download the AAX files like the image below.
