I do have the first generation of the Victor Stream and the Bookport 
Plus and both NLS books and magazines play fine on those devices.

Using the BARD Mobile app I can only play NLS content.

There was instructions on transferring non-NLS books like the magazines 
only distributed free from American Printinghouse and I now want to 
read them on the iPhone using some DAISY player.

I am looking for to set up my reading to be done on one device.

I may have to call or write American Printinghouse.
