Hi Gordon,
I meant why would blind people bother over the Nebula? The Nebula is just
as accessible, and more feature-rich than the Freedom Stick.
All the best

Hi
The reason for blind folks bothering is the fact that apart from audio
description it is probably one of the most easily accessible programs
available for viewing and recording from Freeview. If it's only Audio
Description that people want then of course it's valueless.
Best wishes.

Hi Kevin,
That's why I am surprised that any blind folks bothered with this thing.
The only thing in its favour, is that it is a USB stick. If Nebula did a
USB version, it would kick ass, I tell you.
All the best

hi steve, i stand corrected! smile. but what a pointless set up!! the audio
description isn't much use unless you have the audio from the program your
watching!

Hi Kevin,
I believe the TV Stick does have Audio Description. However, it has some
bizarre flaw in it, in that you can either have the audio description, or
the sound track of the show, but not both. Daft, or what? I have never
rated this USB stick. Long live Nebula!
All the best

hi, this is maybe a dumb question, but what exactly are you wanting to know
about it? if your asking about accessibility of any software it comes with,
then i've no idea. if your asking about audio description, then it does not
have it. the nebula card, so far as i'm aware, is the only one that supports
AD.
