I know what you mean about hesitancy to buy something that might lock you out of your purchases. Fortunately, with Audible there are a lot of options to get around DRM, depending on your platform. At a minimum, as long as you can play an audiobook, you can record that book in a different format. On the Mac platform, I have a vendor that I use that converts aax (audible's DRM format) to mp3. In general, the first thing that I do when I buy an audible book (and I have a library of around 800 audiobooks) is convert it to mp3. That allows me to put it in a playlist on my iPhone so I can listen in the car without having to worry about pulling over when a book ends and I want to play the next.
