A lot of people recommend AudiobookBay but FreeMediaHeckYeah warns to only use their torrents. Are there any known safe sources that provide direct downloads of audiobooks? Preferably something I don’t have to sign up for.
And no, unfortunately I do not have access to a library at this time.
May I ask why you can’t use the torrents on Audiobookbay? I use it and it works great. Torrents usually download in just a few minutes.
OP said “only use their torrents” and they want direct download options…
I know, and I’m wondering why they dont want to use torrents
Wow first I’m hearing of this, how can I add it to Prowlarr?
Probably doesn’t want to pay for a VPN.
I use Nicotine+. It connects to the Soulseek network. I find many audiobooks there. Usually fast downloads. People share directly from their computers.
So you’re als uploading automatically? Isn’t this the same as torrenting?
No, because you share individual folders accessible to anyone. It’s not homogeneous data that is pooled together based on hash.
If you have a copy of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and another guy has a copy of Dungeon Crawler Carl, people can choose to download from either of you, but not from both of you at the same time.
Exactly what dubyakay said. Also you don’t have to share anything if you don’t want to. No automatic upload.
You can find some on soulseek. Would need to create a username/password but no email required.
Ive used myanonamous for years, its a private torrent tracker. Obviously needs sign up though sorry.

IRC is pretty good. There are bots that serve up e-books but many also have audiobooks. It’s direct download with a few extra steps.
I didn’t ever make an account there I just paste the hash into Tixati but yeah if your client doesn’t support it you can also convert the hash to a magnet link on a lot of sites.
Librivox.org has most of the public domain stuff and cross posts to archive.org, my favorite so far is the sleepy hollow reading by Chip

There are web based torrent downloaders like WebTorrent. But you’ll probably need to sign up for audiobookbay or hope that some public service like The Pirate Bay has what you’re looking for.
You don’t need to sign up to audiobookbay. Just paste the hash into your torrent client.
