Hi,

Perhaps they'd do well to recycle the discs instead of destroying them when 
they arrive back in the RNIB?

The data side of the disc is only exposed when you flip it round to hide your 
address and post it back.

Regards,
Barry.

On my Talking Book list, we were told that this would save a considerable 
amount of money and that the packaging had been robustly tested. The green card 
was also played. I would have thought that with this kind of packaging, there 
was a danger that foreign material could actually get in through the disc hole 
and damage the playing side.

For those who like us still have Daisy talking books on discs has others notice 
over the past week or so they are sent out now without any plastic to cover the 
front of the disc?
When I called R N I B to ask I was told it was yet another cut back.
Surely the discs will get dirty or scratched in transit.

I am told if the front is damaged then the play side won't play.
What next I ask.
Hazel
