Unfortunately, I automatically deleted the non-MP3 files before putting the 
books on my Stream.  I'll have to remember to try adding the entire book the 
next time I request an MP3 book.

  Barb, someone on the Stream list indicated that her latest Bookshare mp3 
download played successfully in the $VRDTB folder. That would seem to indicate 
that they've corrected the problems with the DAISY markup with the new service. 
is the DAISY working with your latest downloads?



  Not requiring a password to unzip seems like an oversight to me.

  I just wanted to say that I requested 2 books to be downloaded in the MP3 
format.  I requested them shortly after noon CDT today.  I am happy to report 
that I had them downloaded and on my NLS player before 1:00 this afternoon.  I 
am so glad to see that the time to get the links for downloading has lessened 
that much.



  I did, however, notice one thing different.  Usually, when I unzip the book, 
it gives me the message that I need to type my password into the edit field.  I 
did not receive that message today with either book and was able to download 
without typing my password.  Not a big deal but it was kind of nice not having 
to type that password in again.

    Hi,

    Is anyone having trouble downloading BRF files?  When I try to download 
them I get stuck on the "save as" function.
