Hi: Basically there are two types of books with and with out audio. You can for example create text daisy books from k1000 or you can get them in audio from a library. The recordings for the blind books use a none standard way of locking them. I guess they are concerned that us poor blind folks who only might have access to 10% of all printed material might just steal one. O my the culture shock of it all.
Pardon my sarcasm if find there concerns totally silly since we could just scan the same books.

There are to kinds of daisy books I think ones that you can get off of bookshare and those played on equipment for RFB And D. The ones in daisy text will work on the bn not from RFB and D as of yet. I think it would be cool if could be possible someday though.
