Hello. I bought your application with a lifetime license. Your application is very nice. There is no problem in downloading and converting. However, an urgent and very important update is needed. Audiobooks converted to MP3 files do not have a cover image and the name of the person voicing the audiobooks is not written. In audio books, it would be very nice if the name of the book, the author, and the name of the person doing the cover and voice-over were included. Thanks. I hope you will take this shortcoming into consideration and release a new update as soon as possible.

It works! Just to make that clear from the get-go. Relatively easy to set up and the conversions are done very quickly, so if you're not familiar with these guys, don't worry that they might be scamming you. They're legit.

The only reason I'm taking a star off, at least for now, is that the program's advertised ability to split by chapter is one of the things that sold me on it, and based on my limited experience so far, it does a very bad job of it. It seems to split books based on a very brief and nonvarying period of silence, which does not at all correspond to actual chapters. In fact, it's so bad that sometimes even the narrator's chapter announcements are split in two. Fortunately, the program also gives you a single file to work with, and I was able to quickly do a much better job chaptering the three books I used for testing by simply setting a separate splitter software to split on 3250 ms of silence. This kind of manual splitting is not always so easy, though, especially with some older recordings, so hopefully the Epubor guys will come up with a much more intelligent way of having their own software do this automatically. I use another free software for chaptering Audible downloads and 9 out of 10 times it does an excellent job of splitting by actual chapters, so it seems that this should be possible.

If the chapter stuff is not important to you, though, or not as important as just being able to have your own copy of a book that you can listen to at your leisure, without having to maintain a subscription, this is an easy recommendation. Another reviewer mentioned the lack of proper tags, and the automatic file naming could also use some work, but those things can quickly be done in a software like MP3Tag, so not as a big a deal to me personally as the chaptering feature.

Guys, this is such a common problem that I don't see any need to give you paths on my system and specific titles, Please just use your own software to test this. If you download and convert three random titles, it would be pure luck if at least one of the three did not suffer from this problem. Just click through each file after the conversion and listen: some will be okay but you will likely find a good number that are not.

P.S. I believe you guys are non=English speakers (?), so it might be helpful if you tested some English language titles, as it's possible that those in your own language are less prone to this problem for whatever reason - maybe.
