[Dtb-talk] NLS Digital Players

[David Andrews]

NLS does not provide blank cartridges or thumb drives.  They are in 
the business of providing books preloaded on cartridges -- in the way 
that they have provided cassettes.

You can purchase a blank cartridge, the AT division of Perkins School 
for the blind is selling them.  APH may be too, not sure if they are 
selling individual cartridges.  ILA did for a while, but seems to 
have gotten out of that business quickly.
