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?

Y'all ever hear of Libby app? It's like piracy with fewer steps.

Love Libby, but my small town library has limited inventory. Is there a virtual library I can get a card for with a larger inventory?

I believe there do exist places where you can get a virtual library card without living there. New York Public Library is what comes to mind, but don't quote me on that.
