I want to get away from audible to save money and for privacy. I would like to keep buying audiobooks if possible and host them on my server to stream to my android phone.

I have an unraid plex server at home. Suggestions for hosting and streaming solutions?

Update: I ended up going with audiobookshelf. I love it so far and it does everything I need. More importantly (for me anyway) it’s not reliant on a $17/mo audible subscription. Please reach out over DM if you find this post in the future and have trouble getting audiobookshelf to work on unraid!

    Not what you’re asking for and others have provided a lot of options… but if you still want to support authors and get DRM-free audio books, check out https://libro.fm. It works like Audibe credits and easy to pause and resume membership (more cost effective than buying books retail and you can buy extra credits). They also support a local brick and mortar book store of your choice with your purchase.
