I tried a free audio book from audible. The conversion speed into MP3 High Quality was boringly slow, for a 16 minutes long and less than 15 megs AAX file. It then got stuck at 20% for quite some time without anything moving forward, eating up all my CPU. After about 5 minutes i had enough and cancelled the conversion.
Then i tried OpenAudible, it converted the same AAX file into MP3 in less than a minute without hoops and proper tags included.
I then tried another AAX file, 52 minutes long, 48 megs big.
OpenAudible converted it in about 1 and half a minute without any problems and proper tags, while Tuneskit again got stuck at 20%, eating up all my CPU, forcing me to cancel the conversion again.
I tried a reinstall, different codecs for output but it didn't change anything, conversion always ends at 20% and then gets stuck. So i had enough of this and finally uninstalled it, as it is of no use for me.
OpenAudible can do just what todays offer can (except for adding Effects and the Editing option) but for free and much better, it can also download AAX files directly from the audible library due to being able to connect with audible directly through a integrated web browser.
Without Tuneskit being able to finish a conversion, i can't properly compare the Spectrum (using Spek, which ignores all the garbage data audio files have that have a higher bitrate than needed and displays the RAW quality) for both converted output files from OpenAudible and Tuneskit to see how good the audio quality after conversion really is in direct comparison.
OpenAudible left me with Lossy MP3s in VBR 116 kb/s and VBR 96.0 kb/s respectively and no way to change that (it doesn't have that option to change the output settings) or compare it directly to what Tuneskit is able to produce because it didn't work at all for me.
After my experience, i'm stuck with OpenAudible. Better luck next time.
