Hi John.
"audio cd" in synbth, even though listening to synths isn't my favourite
option is what I was thinking, sinse again it's another format and I know
there are programs that can easily create mp3 files from standard text.
What I'd be tempted to do on the burning issue is burn a few copies, but
also distribute the audio file to any organizations who habilitually make
audio announcements on cd (such as the local society for the blind where my
mum is), and let them handle reproduction.
Obviously cds would be harder to produce as you said, but having a few
kicking around that could be copied or listened to at conventions would have
the same help in distribution methods as anything else.
All the best,
Dark.
There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is vast
and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars than even
the archmaesters of the citadel can dream.

An audio cd would be surprisingly difficult to make hundreds of copies of.
You can probably get the disks for $50 (ish), but you can only burn them
one
at a time, and each and every one would take at least 10 minutes of active
work by the person doing the burning. I'm not saying that it'd be
impossible, but that making audio cds as a primary form of distribution
for
the entire leaflet is probably not our best idea.
Further, there'd also be the fact of narration - I know a lot of people
who
would not want to listen to what is essentially a glorified advertisement
done by synthesizer. Therefore, we'd have to have somebody narrate the
whole
thing (professionally, not some internal mic with background hiss), and
then
somebody to edit that narration.
The idea of an audiogames cd has its own merits - if we wanted, we could
put
together trailors of a number of different games and distribute them on
the
cd along with our introduction, but I think that such a project is a bit
beyond the scope of what we're currently considering.

Braille and an audio CD. Simple. Large print readers are covered by an
audio option. Done.
