Note that you have to pay for an OpenAudible license to be able to use it with more than a few tracks.
If you can get your activation bytes from one of your DRM-protected files using https://audible-converter.ml, you can then just use ffmpeg (e.g. ffmpeg -activation_bytes XXXXXXXX -i audiobook.aax -c copy audiobook.m4b) or https://github.com/audiamus/AaxAudioConverter to remove the DRM.
Unfortunately this doesn’t work for the Japanese store (and a few others) that seem to use a different DRM scheme with a separate key for each file, so you have to use OpenAudible for these.
As long as your Drive folder is not made public and gets accessed by many people, you should be fine.
Make sure to make backups outside of Drive though, in case Google decides to delete your files.
It really surprised me the first time I saw the Skip intro button on a series I downloaded. It seems to work by analyzing the audio and comparing it between episodes from the same season.
Not a website but a tool: https://openaudible.org/ works really well for Audible audiobooks, and it’s the only tool I found that works for Japanese Audible.

A rip of this specific limited edition CD, that contains a few bonus tracks that can’t be found anywhere else in CD quality.

A PDF of the short-lived Japanese edition of GURPS 4th Edition (specifically Characters and Magic). The books are very hard to find, and usually cost $300-500 when sold online. It seems like no scans were ever made.
It’s really unlikely that an EPUB would be able to damage your devices.
This is more likely to be a hardware issue.
