[nabs-l] daisy playback products

[Ashley Bramlett]

Joshua,
The classic model was discontinued. you might be able to buy one used or buy 
someone's old player they don't want.
That is why I say daisy cd players are harder to come by. I think the only 
daisy cd player out there is the victor reader stratus.
