The original poster stated that the files didn't move. Perhaps your  
assumption about "thus the book was moved from Music to Audiobooks..."  
is inaccurate. But I haven't heard if the file type was indeed changed  
to xxx.aa, and whether the changed file type resulted in the quality  
of "bookmarkable".
