Where do you find audiobooks? (feddit.de)

I tried a couple of times to find certain audiobooks, but seldomly had luck. There just does not seem to be a place that sells digital versions of audiobooks, similar to how bandcamp sells music.

And even putting on my eye patch and throwing out my fishing net I was not able to find a place to get them.

I do not want to use a subscription service, especially if it's part of amazon.

Therefore it seems buying a CD and ripping it is the only option left.

I signed in using my Dallas public library card, but once you're in i think you can add other libraries for bigger selection.

Edit to add - Harris County Public Library let's you sign up online through libby with a phone number. It's says it's a temporary card but would at least get your started.
