Yes. if you use learning ally or bookshare, you can download a free daisy 
reader from their site as part of your membership. for learning ally, its 
readHere.

Subject: [nabs-l] question about DAZY software

Hi all:
So, I had a copy of JAWS during high school along with a Braillenote,
so I usually kept switching between the 2 for books--FS Reader would
come in handy for Learning Ally books, which I would often download
because they weren't available on Bookshare.
But now I don't have JAWS anymore, since that copy was specific to my
high school,
and I can't get JAWS from rehab as of yet since I'm neither in college
nor working at this point due to state residency requirements.
I tried NVDA but didn't like it too much and ended up going for the
Access Anywhere System Access package.
My problem though is that,although System Access and Access Anywhere
is great, I've lost FSReader.
I tried running it several times without JAWS but it kept crashing,
and apparently Freedom Scientific doesn't have a stand alone version
of the product.
Anyone have any ideas for free software-based DAIZY readers?
(I also gave my braillenote back to the DOE since that was a loan 
basically.)

Thanks,

Jorge
