Thanks Joe.  My purpose in sending a general response to Kirt's message was
to explain how Blio is accessible.  Obviously I would like to see everyone
reading books with Blio, but mainly I wanted Kirt and everyone else to know
that any book they buy or download for free can be read and is accessible.  

The fact that Kirt had the experience he reported is clearly important to
address so others will have a smoother introduction to Blio in the future,
so thanks to Kirt for bringing this up.  

Best,

James Gashel

I know people have complained about Blio.  Yet, I'm glad there's yet one
more option to access literature.  Competition is good, and better that we
have companies making it a priority than to have us be made an afterthought.
I've not checked out the service myself, mostly on account of already having
a sufficient number of options, but it's something worth considering.  I
hope there'll be an iOS app coming out in the near future.
