Best software to manage Audiobooks on Windows?

[airborne]

Hi people, hope someone can help me here.

I have quite a few audiobooks and I'd like software that I can point towards the main folder (each audiobook is nested within that in its own folder, normally with quite a few files/mp3 etc per book) and then scan all the folders and show each book in a bookshelf like gui, where I can see more info for each book, mark them as read, get more info on the book/author automatically from the web etc?

Must be something that can do this, I'm on Win 10 and use Android.

Audio book ... noun ... the perfect waste of both audio and books.

I love audiobooks and was hoping 8.1 would show some love. I mostly use audible but the ones that are not protected I either use an app called digital audio books or audiobook simple player

I have an awesome Android audiobook app but I can't keep all the books on the phone and it would be great to be able to browse them on the computer.

Just occurred to me that Kodi may have something, ahh ha!

I've got hundreds of audiobooks. I use iTunes to manage them all but you said windows and I'd never wish that experience on anyone.

FWIW I used an app to merge them all into one file with the cover embedded. Much easier to manage than lots of individual mp3s.

That's not a bad idea, mmm, what software do you use to merge them but you are on mac though?

I have a lot of unread books on the computer, need some way of browsing them to find the next book to listen to.
