Back in2007, almost everyone was new to downloading books. Only a tiny
number of people had been doing it as part of an NLS project. So everyone
was especially eager to share the new things they were learning and it was
all about the stream which had first been sold in August or September 2007.
It was like it used to be in new suburban neighborhoods. Everyone moved in
at the same time and everyone was looking for friends and wanted to belong.
Downloading books and that first stream was a whole new experience for
everyone and people were very open and shared readily.

You did learn though. And learning takes effort. If you just say that it is
too hard to learn you never learn anything. If Marsha can subscribe to this
list I am sure that she can subscribe to the lists that she needs to learn
what she needs to know.

But someone has to teach you and it's easier for some people to learn
than for others. Marsha hasn't been on the BARD Talk list and I
actually learned originally from the VR Stream list back in 2007. And
I only learned because people were kind enough to give me step by step
directions. None of this is easy for some of us.

You listen to Bookshare books on the DTBM exactly the way you listen
to NLS on it. You just have to download the Daisy audio version and
transfer it to the drive you are using in your player. Of course, you
said that you didn't know how to do that, but it is easy to learn.

Hi
I have no idea how you would listen to Book Share books on the
Talking book player. I love that I can just stick the Stream in my
pocket and head out.
