The purpose of this software is to convert AAX files to common MP3, M4A and M4B formats
through a basic bash script frontend to FFMPEG.
Audible uses this file format, AAX to maintain DRM restrictions on their audio
Audible uses this file format to maintain DRM restrictions on their audio
books and if you download your book through your library it will be
stored in this format.

### MP3 Encoding
* This is the default encoding
* Produces 1 or more mp3 files for the AAX title. If you desire a single file use the **--single** option
* If you want a mp3 file per chapter do not use the -single option. Note a m3u playlist file will also be created in this instance.
* If you desire flac encoding. use the **--flac** option. It's a bit faster but also a bit less compatible.
### M4A Encoding
### Ogg/Opus Encoding
* Can be done by using the -o or --opus command line switches
* Is designed to efficiently code speech and general audio in a single format
* Opus coded files are stored in the ogg container format for better compatibilitt.
### AAC Encoding
* Can be done by using the -a or --aac command line switches
* Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format
* Generally achieves better sound quality than MP3 at the same bit rate.
* This will only produce 1 audio file as output.
### FLAC Encoding
* Can be done by using the -f or --flac command line switches
* FLAC is an open format with royalty-free licensing
### M4B Encoding
