Yes, it reminds meow the bookshare read2go app. $20, and it's barely updated, 
and hasn't even taken advantage of the iOS7 voice api openings and all that, 
and we still have to switch sections to get to more content than a section or 
chapter rather than it automatically scrolling. $20 for a dead app, and $99 for 
the same mortality of apps, for the blind. Voice-dream, however, services all, 
and is updated a lot.
