I've heard that others can use the digital player with other file types.

Hello List Members,
Below this message, is an email that was sent to me from someone at the
Bureau of Brail and Talking Book Library in Daytona Beach Florida.
Either she wasn't very clear with me on this, or she was just plane
incorrect about it.
What she said was, the NLS player won't play any other files.
Don't take my word for it, se for yourself and tell me if I'm correct about
this or not.
I emailed her back and told her that other blind people myself included,
have tested this player.
It can play MP3 and WAV files.
My best regards.
John.
