Note that when you now go to rip new audiobooks, you must do this in the Music app there is no such option in the Books app.
This allows you to store the audiobook files on an external drive, if you don’t have enough space on your Mac’s startup drive. If you rip audiobook CDs, their files can stay in your Music library, and you can listen to them in the Music app, sync them to an iOS device, and even put them in your iCloud Music Library, if the bit rate is 96 kbps or above. Or you can keep your audiobooks in your Music library. (Audiobooks will be stored in a folder in the Library folder of your home folder: ~/Library/Containers/.) At other times, store them on an external disk. However, these files are stored on your startup disk, and you may simply not have enough space on this disk, so if you have a large audiobooks library and want all your audiobooks in the Books app, I recommend only adding those to the app when you want to listen to them. For example, you click buttons to skip ahead or back by 15 seconds, set a sleep timer, and more. You can move your audiobooks to the Books app, which offers a number of features for playback that are more appropriate for listening to spoken word. But if you have a collection of audiobooks that you have ripped, or downloaded without DRM, then you have two options for managing audiobooks in a post-iTunes world. If you have audiobooks from Audible or from the iTunes Store – technically the Books Store – you have no choice: they can only be stored in the books app. With the split of iTunes into four apps, the way audiobooks are managed is different.
