My answer would be, it depends. I'm a huge audiobook consumer as I listen to them at work all day (and often in the car to and from work as well). I use both the public library and Audible.
If you will be listening a lot then it will depend on if your library has a lot of books you'd like to listen to and what their hold times are like. Sometimes I have no problem finding a book from the library and other times I've had to wait months because of hold times. If you will be doing a lot of listening Audible might be a way to go. I have the two credit plan and usually don't have to hard of a time "spending" my credits as they have a huge selection although now that I've been 'collecting' audiobooks for many years I sometimes don't use my credits that quickly because I like to re-listen to certain books sometimes.
As far as converting WMA books it's really quite simple (as long as you're using Windows). You simply download using Overdrive Media Console and when the books downloaded attach your iThing, select the book and click transfer. The software will do the actual conversion and place it on your device.
