I'd quite like to know how to sideload audiobooks so that they are played by Kobo's audiobook player. I don't yet have a Kobo capable of playing audiobooks though, so this is just a theoretical interest for me right now.

Does running `file` on these files inside .kobo/audiobook show anything useful?

Aside: the Unix/Linux `file` command tries to figure out the format of the file just using the file contents.
