Hi alice, I agree, I'd love to be able to access US publications, but as a mere foreigner, what can I expect? (smiles)
The TNAUK home page is at http://www.tnauk.org.uk . They provide magazines and newspapers in various formats, including cassette, CD, Daisy etc. Their online services include e-text and audio versions of many different publications. The audio versions are in MP3, and you can also subscribe to a podcast for each audio publication. For more information on the digital services, try this link: http://www.tnauk.org.uk/Pages/digital_service.html To subscribe and pay with a credit card, you need to call the following number: +441435 866102. I've always found them to be very friendly and helpful. For subscription prices, click on the "Subscribe" link from the Digital Services page (see above). The annual subscription covers an unlimited number of publications, and you can have individual e-text publications sent by email if you wish for no extra charge.
