Hi folks
Can anyone tell me the best person to give feedback to regarding the
new download system recently introduced? I tried it last night for
the first time. I wanted to try a DAISY audio book to see what the
speech is like. Not too bad actually, but a male voice choice would
be nice as well. The thing that seems senseless to me is that it
transfers you immediately to your history page. Since it takes a
little over an hour for the book to be prepared and ready for you to
download it's a waste of time and steps for this to happen. You
either sit there or have to manually go back to the book list and
finish looking for other books to download. Each time they put you in
your history page and each time you have to go back to your book
list. It's a waste of time and effort and very frustrating.
I do like the combo box. It's a nice feature. The disadvantage to
choosing other formats besides DAISY text is the wait for
preparation. For all these years we've gotten used to instant
downloads. It's a real deterrent to have to wait more then an hour
for audio. I'm not sure it'll really catch on as long as that remains the case.

Hi! I just got off the volunteer phone call and I wanted to let
each of you know that I'm willing to scan the book that, A, Lissie
won't proof and Evan won't scan and, B, one or two of Kelly's herbal
books. I'm sighted, a long-time volunteer, and I like to think I'm
pretty good, but one thing I'm not is very fast.
So, please write to me off-list at mmbeagle@xxxxxxxxx and let's make
some books!
Gratefully,
Marilyn
