.AAX File Extension

A .AAX file is a Audible Enhanced Audiobook File, created by Audible.

Open with Apple iTunes (Discontinued). Available for Windows and Mac.

What is a .AAX file?

The .AAX file is a special type of audiobook that you can listen to and sometimes see pictures in. It's made by a company called Audible, and you can find these audiobooks on websites like Audible.com, AudibleKids, and even the iTunes Store. This file is a bit different from the usual audiobook file (.AA) because it can have extra stuff like images and clickable links. This makes it really cool, especially for children's books or graphic novels, where pictures are a big part of the story.

To open and listen to these .AAX files, you used to be able to use a program called Apple iTunes, but it's not available anymore. Even though iTunes is discontinued, if you already have it, you might still be able to use it to play these files. These audiobooks are not just for listening on your computer; you can also enjoy them on devices like the Apple iPod or the Amazon Kindle 2. However, there's one important thing to remember: to play these audiobooks, you need to have an account with Audible.com. This usually means you have to sign up for their service and pay a subscription fee. Once you have an account, you can start listening to your audiobooks, complete with any images or links they come with. This is especially great for kids' books on AudibleKids, where the pictures show up on the screen automatically as the story is read aloud, making the experience even more engaging for young listeners.
