Hi Ian
The point I was making was actually the other way around - what are the
advantages of TB membership, as compared to this new service? seems to me that
the new one offers everything TB membership does, and more, with the adition
that it is more flexible.

The only advantage I can see over Talking Book membership is that you can
have access to the books instantly if you have a broadband connection. It's an
interesting idea and it works well enough. However, I think it's worth making
the point that it doesn't actually give us access to any more books than we
currently have. This is surely what we want rather than another way of
accessing the same material already available to us.

Hi
Just seen the message about the above. I am wondering where this leaves
the "talking book service", since from the sound of things you could basically
get the same or better functionality by taking out a si
Jamesngle subscription to the Bookstream Book club.
