Being able to search a book is another good point - especially for
nonfiction books. But I found myself doing a search in a fiction book I had
just scanned looking for a character's name because I knew I had seen it
before, but I couldn't remember where. In a few seconds I had the answer.
Try doing THAT on tape.

I am one of those people with a hearing.
There is something else. When one needs to skim, braille is easier. One cannot search for a recurring word or symbol in a talking book.
