Unfortunately Audible seems to be applying a new DRM lock to prevent downloads of the Dolby Atmos version so unless this is cracked some day, there won’t be any more downloading of those. Well, determined people can always go back to the analog method: reencoding the audio output. Not as fast or as perfect as pure digital decryption, but with the ridiculous bitrate they use, it would be pretty good. Personally, I don't listen to audiobooks for the effects. Most books I set the equalizer to mono ... But to each his own. |

It could be done with a Mac I think. Am a PC user myself, but the only web browser that Audible allows to stream Atmos is Safari on a Mac  Everything else is either a phone or a tablet/Kindle Zero support for Windows |

But any streaming format can be captured. I expect someone will have worked out a way within a month or two. On the bright side, we don't seem be getting a HP DDOS this time. |

I am currently uploading the UK versions of the first five full-cast Potter books in full Dolby Atmos. They were sent to me by iTzNiKo, but I have no idea how they were downloaded in the first place. He has said that if he is able to, he will send me the two forthcoming books as well. Harry Potter UK Atmos torrents |

Are they actually different, aside from titles and covers? I know the UK book editions and Jim Dale narrations had a few changes to Americanise the language, but thought these dramatised ones were strictly original UK text. https://screenrant.com/harry-potter-british-american-book-differences/ |

They are the same with one exception. The Philosopher’s Stone is mentioned in books 1, 2, 4 & 5 and might get mentioned again in books 6 & 7, I haven't read these yet so not sure.
The US versions all call it the Sorcerer's Stone in all the books. Only book three (so far) is exactly the same.

I thought there were other minor dialect changes. Cookies/biscuits, candy/sweets, etc. :/

That's true for the Jim Dale & Stephen Fry books, but the makers of the full-cast versions realised that that was too much of an arse-ache (I'm paraphrasing here) so they went with just rerecording lines which reference the Philosopher's Stone.
I got this info from a behind the scenes video on EweChoob
