If anyone is interested in audio versions of Newsweek or Reader's Digest, 
you can sign up at APH and download the magazines. I just downloaded 
Reader's Digest. I don't think Newsweek is available quite yet, but should 
be soon. You have to unzip the file, like you do with BARD downloads. You 
also have to have a digital player from NLS or an authorized player on which 
to play the magazines. They will not play on an MP3 player or the computer. 
Here is the list message with the website if anyone wants to sign up.

Hi list:
American Printing House for the Blind (APH) is indeed now offering 
downloadable magazines from its Web site for those with BARD authorized 
players. The
signup process is pretty straight forward--all you need to do is to go to 
the following address:
http://tech.aph.org/mags
And you can set up a username and password. All they require is your 
contact information.
It was pretty easy--I signed up this morning and had my first issue of 
Readers Digest in minutes.
They only have one issue right now--the December/January issue of Readers 
Digest, but, I imagine we'll see Newsweek in a few days.
Hope this helps.
