[nabs-l] DAISY integration for the iPod Nano?

[T. Joseph Carter]

The iPod nano lacks the control interface to make that really worthwhile, 
in my opinion.  The Stream is the device for that function.  As for NLS 
titles, there's no way Apple will be allowed to have iTunes support them.  
No computer will play them back because of the DRM--that's the NLS policy 
on the matter.

I think that Audible, for audio books, is too limiting. You probably would not want to have your text books on the iPod, that's definitely a job for the Stream or Scholar, but even leisure books from the NLS are in the DAISY/NISO format, or titles from BookShare even. What do you think?
