If you are willing to selfhost, you should look into audiobookshelf. Abs is a streaming server for audiobooks. It for example allows multiple people to use the same library and have their individual listening progress saved. And you can actually stream your books and don't have to download them if you don't want to.

In short: it's a much nicer listening experience than audible ever was, especially if you shared your account with someone else.

And you can use https://audible-tools.kamsker.at/ to free your existing audible library from the clutches of Amazon
