It's called Dolphin EasyReader. Dolphin are a UK-based company that
developed Supernova screen-reader and magnification software. Their
EasyReader can read other ebook formats besides DAISY.

Voice Dream Reader.
Perhaps you should reach out to supp...@voicedream.com and ask about
pricing in other countries.
Or, as you say, just use Easy Reader.

You guys are forgetting about the "Dolphin Easy Reader" app; which has
a Bookshare interface. It's free, thus I plan to use it even more if
Voice Dream ends up being subscriptiononly. Good luck!

Thanks for the clarification. I never get audiobooks from books
share, so book player I don’t care. Kind of sucks. I still think I
should be able to download stuff as long as I don’t try to
upgrade. You can always do that with everything else. If I have an
apple device for instance, and it’s not getting updates anymore I
can still use it. This kind of stinks from that aspect. They
shouldn’t cut us off from being able to download anything from
Bookshare because we don’t want to pay. What if we don’t give a
good bloody damn about whatever they think they’re going to
implement that we’re going to pay for. I’m not happy about that.
But it’s the best thing out there so far. God knows the garbage
from speech central doesn’t get it done. It’s too bad.

I tend to agree with you, Richard. What is book player if
you know? I had never heard of bookplayer app. There is no
way I’m going to speech Central. It’s just too clunky. If
he did what he’s been asked to do and implemented an easy
way to download bookshare books right through the app,
Then I would possibly reconsider. But I don’t give two
figures for all that fancy Voice stuff he’s doing. I’m
perfectly happy with what I have now.

I have not updated today.
But, if anyone wants to go back and look at what
Winston Chen had said when he sold Voice Dream LLC.,
he made it clear that he would have had to begin
charging a subscription to be able to maintain
development and he had already started the Mac version
as a subscription.
$59 a year seems perfectly reasonable to me if you
want the app to continue.
You can always dump it for DAISY Easy Reader or Speech
Central and deal with much harder interfaces and keep
it free…
