Why aren't there more pirated audiobooks considering how easy it is to rip them from Audible? (lemmy.ml)

edit: Libation apps needs you to give it your amazon password and ID, it's foss and I trust it. (editing because seemed important)

Amazon allows you to download the book from Audible, but you need a code/password or something like that to read it. Libation can basically convert these encrypted files into decrypted mp3 files by getting this code from the website, I am pretty sure you can get it too. So, my question is, why aren't there more pirates pirating audiobooks? Why isn't every audiobook on audible available online for free?

I mean, many are, but why is it not more prevalent?

Imagine somebody gamified it like people gamify seeding lol.

I guessing less people want them. I imagine that it could be part of them being a far more niche area. Beyond that, don’t really know the reasoning for why

support authors if you like them and audiobooks are free at libraries anyway

Know any good ways to support authors we like without having to pay to rent an audiobook?
