I’m just shaking my head, the CD as a distribution format for Talking Books has gone the way of the clay tablet and is a very unreliable and expensive method to use for distribution. The CD itself is prone to scratches as everyone knows. Then the CD has to be sent somehow, I’m assuming by post. Then there’s the question of when the CD will arrive with the client and so it goes on. Most Talking Book players ir IOS/Android Apps have facilities built right in to handle the online downloading of Talking Books. Even Vision Australia have - as far as I know - pretty much abandoned CD distribution and offer Apps for IOS and Android that give access to the Vision Australia Library for members.
