AppleTV and Audiobooks

I just got back from Europe. While I was there I saw the AppleTV in the Regent Street Apple Store in London. I knew I had to have one as soon as I got back home. Sure enough I picked up one yesterday (the day after I got back). It was as easy to setup as everyone says. But here is one thing I have run into. I have the Harry Potter audiobooks I purchased through iTunes. But I also have an Audible subscription. None of my Audible audiobooks show up on the AppleTV. I guess even though audiobooks purchased through iTunes come from Audible, ones directly from Audible are considered third party unsupported files. This does make sense once I thought about it since they are in Audible’s format if you get them straight from Audible and protected AACs if you get them from iTunes.
