Converting iTunes and Audible Audiobooks to MP3 on Mac
Usually, there are 4 kinds of file extension for the purchased audiobooks:
.m4a, .m4b, .aa, .aax
. These purchased audiobooks are usually protected by DRM, and can be played on some specify devices, for the common Mp3 Players or smartphones, to play the m4a or .aa audiobooks seems to be impossible.
And the most important reason for this is these purchased audiobooks are protected by DRM and in a format that an Mp3 Player or a smartphone will not support, so the way to solve this is removing the DRM and convert the protected formats to a common format such as mp3.

Notes:
What’s .m4a:
Audio file compressed with the Apple Lossless Encoder (ALE); uses the Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC), which provides lossless compression; saved in the MPEG-4 container format. M4A files are similar to .MP4 video files, but do not contain a video track.
What’s .m4b:
.m4b is 100 percent identical to .m4a format, but just with different name. So, .m4b is, like .m4a, an audio file wrapped within MPEG-4 container format. The audio encoding can be virtually anything, but most collomly used encoding for both, .m4a and .m4b, files is the AAC.
What’s .aa:
.aa is a Digital audio format used by Audible to store
audio books; designed for storing spoken word audio and supports chapter markers, bookmarks, etc.
What’s .aax:
A .aax file extension is a Audible Enhanced Audiobook File file which is a type of audio file, which is audio embedded with other features, such as images, graphs, maps, or links.
