When I used RFB&D in the 70's, there was a difference in readers. Some
people read well, and others were awful to listen to.
If a studen can't get a textbook from anyone else, then you have to take the
good with the bad.
Personally, I'd rather read with braille, not speech, human or synthesized.
But students don't have the luxury to choose their textbooks' medium.
Since I use audio to read for pleasure, I don't need RFB&D.

Subject: [GW-Booksense] Why should I bother with audio books from RFB&D?
hello all.
I am unconvinced that after NLS Daisy collection of audio books, the
NLS/State library collection of audio books on tape and audible.com, RFB&D
is worth exploring. Now Pl keep in mind I'm only interested in audio books
recorded by real humans and not text based books read out by your speech
synthesizer.
For such audio books, does RFB&D really has a considerable unique selection
that I cant find in the other 3 sources above? Is it really worth my time
to deal with that site? Or is RFB&D going to be so redundant that I
shouldn't even bother?
