Yes, for while Daisy is a specialized format the recording are not they are simply MP3 file and the books can be played in any MP3 player. You just don't get the DAISY navigation.

the Stream will read these books just fine. THe NIV is under copyright I would need the copyright holder's permission to produce such a version.

I am please to offer the following for download. These DAISY scriptures were produced by myself and the National Federation of the Blind of Wyoming for the Wyoming Medical Center. Each is navigable to the verse and are offered in DAISY 2.02 and DAISY/ NISO 2005 format.

The King James version of the Bible Old Testament, New Testament and Apocrypha.

LDS (Mormon) Scriptures, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price (Including facsimiles images.)

The Koran with numeric navigation to sections and phase navigation to verses.

I would be happy to produce scriptures from other faiths, or other versions of the above title provided I can find text of those title which are not controlled by copyright or which the publisher will grant permission.

These are valid DAISY formatted files with the audio in MP3 format in playable order meaning they could be played on an MP3 player but without the DAISY navigation. They are supplied in .iso disk format to be burned onto CD or mounted to your file system. These books were recorded using the Alex voice from Macintosh OS 10.5 Leopard. I wish to thank Apple for making the Alex and other Macintosh voices free to use for the production of digital talking books for the disabled. All off the books are offered free of charge.

The books can be downloaded from http://w3.wmcnet.org/dtbmaker/ books follow the links under the heading "Scriptures"
