I don't have a problem with paying people for their labor, but I do want to have books that I actually own. I'm done paying for things that are locked into a particular corporate app. How do I buy ebooks and audio books that I actually own? Is this even possible in 2025?

The challenge is that Audible has really sucked all the air out of the room so to speak.
