Just my fix - not my rip.
This torrent is based on a m4a (AAC) version of formidable quality - but with a missing part of about one hour.
Chapter marks also did not align with any “chapters/sub-chapters” of the book (The incomplete torrent has been removed from AudioBookBay).

After de-wrapping the AAC with mp4box, I inserted the missing part with mp3directcut & libfaad2.dll (affected final tracks: 046 to 048).
For this, I used an alternate, complete, but lower-quality MP3 version - converted to VBR AAC with matching sample rate and stereo mode.
You can find the MP3 version at https://fictionaudio.com/abss/infinite-jest-david-foster-wallace-3/ - thanks to Stigmata!

Infinite Jest does not follow the traditional layout of a novel. Its fractal structure has been broken down according to the attached eBook:
I split the patched audio lossless into “chapters” and “sub-chapters”, and further split any part still above 90min in length.
Main “chapters” are enumerated [NN] while “sub-chapters”, if any, are denoted [NN.NN].

The split AAC files got batch-rewrapped via ffmpeg and tagged.

Please note that the novel’s endnotes were omitted in the original 2-part audio production (see “Publisher’s note”). As yet I was not able to get hold of their separate audio production.
You can find the endnotes in the accompanying eBook (.epub) and in a dedicated endnotes.pdf.

Publisher’s Description:
“A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America Set in an addicts’ halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are. Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human - and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.”
