Alan, I don't think I ever wrote you to thank you for sending this updated info on Codex. It works tremendously well now and very easy compared to the version a few years back.
At least, for Windows users, which I am. Anyone who wants to use Voice Dream Reader's better voices for their Kindle books would be well advised to get this software. It is free, though he will accept donations via PayPal to help him with his work. Noting that for personal use, this is completely fine, but please do not share converted books with people who have not purchased the book as that would be a copyright infringement. Besides, authors make so little off Kindle books, it is the right thing to do to support them, in my humble opinion. Here is an article about what an author makes from the various formats by one of my favorite authors, Brian McClellan, check it out: http://www.brianmcclellan.com/blog/how-much-an-author-makes-off-their-books Richard -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Lemly Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2016 5:25 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Best app to read Bookshare books Kindle books are DRM protected so Voice Dream Reader can't read them in their native format. You would need to convert them to an ePub or other format Voice Dream can read using a tool such as Codex found here: http://jscholes.net/project/codex/ Alan Lemly -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Bryan Schulz Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2016 5:10 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Best app to read Bookshare books Hi, Can voice dream read kindle format? Bryan -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Wayne Merritt Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2016 4:36 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Best app to read Bookshare books There are probably others, but the two that come to mind are Read2Go (note how it is written) for $20 and Voice Dream Reader for $10. Voice Dream offers many more features, such as reading/reviewing other document types, and the Read2Go app is strictly BookShare books. I don't know about Voice Dream for getting BookShare content but I've heard that it is easy. As for Read2Go, it is easy to search and download books from BookShare. Note that in the Read2Go app, books are read using a TTS voice. Both apps work with Braille displays.
