It depends on how many cds you wanted to burn.
It takes about 20-30 minutes to setup but once you have it all set, you
can burn cds taking 10 minutes as long as your drive and processer are
fast enough.
And if you had the same thing on several units well.
However I wouldn't suggest unless you hired a big company doing it all
yourself for a large group, while I don't mind burning cds for myself by
the time you set em up assuming its not an iso or a perminant project it
can take 30 mins to an hour to get fully setup and burning a single disk.
Now in that reguard if you had the material which I don't braille would
be faster to produce once the files weere set up and all you'd need to
do was supply paper every once in a while and then staple it together
and send it.
Mp3 cds or daisy cds would take just as long to burn though having an
electronic braille or audio upload excluding cds fully would take less
time probably.
However I must confess I enjoy braille to read for a pamphlet, just
about everything I get is a download or cd and sometimes I wish to read
it but there you go.
Its probably easier if you can afford it to produce braille for a large
group if you are doing it yourself or from somewhere.
Ofcause if you have the resources to produce audio or digital at high
speed then I'd go for that or both if you could but it all depends what
you have and how fast and for what size of a group.
For a small group unless its changed braille may be costly to produce
audio not so much.
But that may change as I have been out the loop for a number of years

I think we're almost certainly out of the realm of hiring somebody though,
it'd probably cost thousands, which was exactly what we're trying to avoid
by making this a community undertaking.
I'd personally say that if we're going to do a cd, it'd probably be a better
idea to do it only once we know what kind of reception we're going to get -
that's a lot of work for an unknown reward.

Well, I find it less than pleasant that our own folks are quick to do
away with and shun Braille, like poof be gone, but oh the Gods up
above if we don't accommodate those large print readin' gods and
goddeses. What would it take for starters a whole afternoon or a few
days of one's time to burn them?Then, we'd get an idea of time and
have some way to gage cost of hiring a real professional. After all,
Newsreel and Pawtracks didn't start out sounding like RCA or Cash
Money or NLS studio quality. No one round hear is a stranger to elbow
grease and just getting it done especially in the face of challenges
and obstacles! Happy to do it!I realize some of us on heare do have
check-paying jobs so.... And some of us have access to and the
know-how to record a human reading so that it doesn't sound like a
classroom recording or home cassette. Though that's not me. I was just
trying to find a solid workable solution without counting out or
disrespecting anyone's preferences. The real problem I'm having hear
right now is a whole lotta talking and discussion and not enough
action. A whole lot of what-ifs and not enough working lets-sees. At
this point we have more than enough thrown out all options. Enough
with the excuses for this or that!

An audio cd would be surprisingly difficult to make hundreds of copies of.
You can probably get the disks for $50 (ish), but you can only burn them
one
at a time, and each and every one would take at least 10 minutes of active
work by the person doing the burning. I'm not saying that it'd be
impossible, but that making audio cds as a primary form of distribution
for
the entire leaflet is probably not our best idea.
Further, there'd also be the fact of narration - I know a lot of people
who
would not want to listen to what is essentially a glorified advertisement
done by synthesizer. Therefore, we'd have to have somebody narrate the
whole
thing (professionally, not some internal mic with background hiss), and
then
somebody to edit that narration.
The idea of an audiogames cd has its own merits - if we wanted, we could
put
together trailors of a number of different games and distribute them on
the
cd along with our introduction, but I think that such a project is a bit
beyond the scope of what we're currently considering.

Braille and an audio CD. Simple. Large print readers are covered by an
audio option. Done.
