[Stylist] Bookshare vs. BAARD

Membership is renewed yearly.
For some books mp3 for example the file has to be prepared so it may take 
several hours before the file is available but in general I found download 
was no issue. You're sent an email when your download is ready. For daisy 
they seem to be readily available and download immediately.
When you set up your account you establish your preferred download option, 
so books are automatically downloaded in your format of choice, unless they 
aren't available as was the mp3 I requested. But if you want to change 
formats for some but not all books it's easily done right at the download 
space.

Hello again,

Tessa and Camille, thanks for your replies to my post concerning
Bookshare vs. BAARD.  I did not know Bookshare used synthetic voice.
That's okay, as I use Voiceover on my IPhone Six to read IBooks.

One final question, and this can probably be addressed at the website,
is Bookshare subscribed to once a year or once only?

If you use a voice for reading, has downloading gone well for you?

A former librarian at my local branch claimed it to be less cumbersome
than BAARD according to some patrons. Thanks again.
