Re: Decoding Audible files
To all concerned, I have sad news. Richard passed on December 12, 2009 of a heart attack. Some may know already, however, I'm sending this information to all of Richards email contacts. It was so sudden with no warning. I know Richard receives many emails each day and I want to inform all those who contacted him.

What doesn't work is that you can't download using the old version of audible. That means that you will have to download the files on one computer using the newer version of audible manager and set up the old version of audible manager on a second computer and transfer the files to that computer to be decoded. It is an annoyingly cumbersome process but it is doable and you get the best sound quality possible using goldwave.

The booksense also because it is a newer player and can take advantage of newer designs in memory that weren't around when the Stream was designed has a clock, supports recording in .mp3 and .wav formats, can play .AAC and enhanced audible files and is promising to be able to play .wma protected files. This might be true, although it can't do it yet and every other player out there including the Victor Reader Stream has promised this at one time or other.

I don't believe the monoblock analogy is strictly correct. All the advice I have seen is to use normal stereo for decent encoded files at bit rates of 192kbps and higher and only use the joint stereo psychoacoustic trick on very poor files encoded at lower bit rates.
