Without having listened to the downloads, this message seems like a 
band-aid than a real attempt at solving the problem. I hope I'm wrong 
about this.

Respectfully,

Original message:

> Dear NABSters:

> Based on your feedback, Learning Ally has developed a set of audio 
> tutorials to make it easy to download LA's digital DAISY audiobooks. 
> For  users of screen readers especially, it's like having a coach right 
> at your side, walking you through the process. In fact, the coach is 
> Kristen Witucki, a blind JAWS user who is  coordinator in LA's product 
> support area. Here's the message from Learning Ally; try the new 
> tutorials and let us know how they work for you. I also will be 
> participating in  the NABS Washington Seminar on Feb. 6 to  meet you 
> individually and continue the conversation.

> Many thanks,
