Well, audible shows it as copyrighted by you and published
by Isis, plus they list Isis as a content provider who
currently accounts for 99 titles in their catalog. They
give links to Isis's website, as well as providing
contact info for their offices in the US and the UK. So
if they deal in unlicensed stuff, they at least make it
easy to rat on them.
Go dig around their site, especially in their "About
Audible" section. I think you'll conclude that they're
a legitimate business, not a source for bootleg or
unlicensed recordings.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
