You do not have to buy Read2Go. If you have a BookShare account you could buy either Voice Dream Reader or Read2Go. There have been lots of discussion on both apps so I am not going to repeat the pros and cons of each app here. Those are both mainly for text based books. If you want access to audio books, there are lots of otheo ways. Look on www.applevis.com If you want access to audio books from BARD, you will need to wait until at least July when NLS hopes to release a free app. HTH,
