[gui-talk] free daisy player

[Joel Deutsch]

Key for NlS? what sort of key?I download files from the BARD online 
catalogue and I don't need a key, just my ID and pass to log onto the site. 
Is there something different that happens if you aren't going to listen to 
one of these files on your NLS digital player? You have to tell them you're 
to play it on your Stream,for example, and then in some way they "send" you 
a "key?" You can't hear the quotation marks around those two words, but 
they're there. They indicate that I don't exactly know what's meant. Thanks. 
What happens? You send them the model number of your device, and they send 
you a secret membership number that you have to type in somewhere before you 
can transfer the files (many of them, for these digital books, I mean just 
for one book, might be more than a dozen files), and then they'll transfer 
to your Stream and you can play them?

Or? Someone please describe how this work. Maybe I'll win the lottery and 
buy a Stream, and then I'll have to understand this stuff.

thanks.

I just checked my receipts and I didn't have to pay for the activation key
to download NLS books.  I did have to pay for the one I got from RFB And D
which cost $10.

Lets b clear and accurate here.

I did not have to pay extra for an NLS certificate.
I didn't pay for the update for the NLS certificate for my stream.
I don't pay for certificates for bard.loc.gov when downloading books for
my stream.

Less clear or accurate:


The PDA from LevelStar has an NLS certificate also I think.
The Book Sense probably will also.

PC-based readers don't have an NLS certificate at present for some
unfounded fears somewhere between NLS and publishing communities.  We
need to get to the root of this, and start working to a reasonable
solution.  I suppose the blindness community is not a favorite in some
publishing circles at present due to our insistence on access to
electronic materials, but NLS should be a driver for change of culture
in the publishing community as well as a service provider.
