I use my MP3 player, and my Book Courier to read books while I am doing
other things like knitting, cleaning the house, or taking a bubble bath.
And the Braillenote is used for work. And usually by the time I get home,
and edit the books I need to edit, well....
Besides the speaker on the BN is not spectacular where I can purchase an
external speaker for the Zen Stone, and for the Book courier.
Also the Braillenote is not recognized as an appropriate agent for
Overdrive, and I like listening to audio books on Unabridged.
That is why I don't use the MP3 feature on the Braillenote. I have however
used it before for teaching my students listening skills.

Shelley, Because I know you have a BrailleNote that is capable of playing
MP3 files, I would be interested to know why you aren't using that instead.
I have never used that function on mine but I'm not particularly interested
in the whole music downloading thing. Just curious.
