Hi Derek,
Not at all lazy. I am a proficient Braille reader, but I can fit a Victor
Reader Stream or Bookcourier in my pocket and have 20 books or more on it.
I could not take that number of books with me on the train, or I would have
a permanent back injury. I can also read with a bookcourier at 400 wpm, I
can't do that in Braille, so far more information is absorbed. I do love
Braille, but I must admit to being an audio convert. Besides I can listen
to my talking books in the bath!
All the best
Steve

Iain says
"McKerral is blind and a Braille reader as also is Jim McCafferty."
Yes but how many on BAUK read Braille alot.
For example, why do so many blind people choose a disk copy of an RNIB
magazine, rather than a Braille copy?
Why choose talking books, rather than braille books?
Note I am of course aware many people not able to read Braille.
I am talking about those that can read braille, but choose not to.
lazy or what?
Regards, Derek
