What is AAX ?

AAX is a file format used by Audible to store audio books. It's the enhanced and improved form of the AA file format. AAX is a popular audio book file extension for more visual books like children's books since it supports the display of images. Images are automatically shown in the player alongside when the audio book plays.

AAX files can contain – next to the usual audio data, bookmark and chapter information – images and other features like links as well. This makes it a very popular extension primarily for children's books. AAX files support a bitrate from 32 to 128 kbit/s. The audio data is AAC encoded which provides a very high audio quality. AAX files are heavily protected and can only be played with a paid Audible.com account. Since the files almost always contain DRM protection, it is nearly impossible to play them on any other player than Apple iTunes, iPod or the Amazon Kindle 2.

Here's a small, but not exhaustive list of programs that can open AAX documents:

  • Apple iTunes (Windows & Mac)

Why Convert AAX to MP3 file?

AAX is the audiobook format used by Audible, and while it works well within Audible apps, it will not play in ordinary music players, car stereos, or most other audio software. Converting AAX to MP3 turns an audiobook you own into a standard audio file that plays on virtually any device or app, so you can listen wherever you like without being tied to a single program.

MP3 is the natural target because it is supported everywhere and keeps files reasonably small, which is ideal for long audiobooks you want on a phone, an MP3 player, or a car system. The result is your audiobook in a flexible, portable format that fits into any playlist or player. It is the practical way to enjoy audiobooks you have purchased on the device of your choice.
