Hi Andy,
 
As you've already read, BookPort does not play W M F files.  However, they
can be converted to M P 3 files by a program called Sound Taxi (
http://www.soundtaxi.info/ ).  Sound Taxi is a $15 program that can convert
any file that Windows Media Player can play to M P 3, regardless of
protection.  You may also download a free trial to see if is suitable for
use with your screen reader.
 
Regards,
 
Don...

Hi, I have some books that are borrowed from the Unabridged library system.
It is managed with the OverDrive program and I can read them either with the
overdrive program or Windows Media.  I guess that the extension is WMA.  Can
the bookport except this?  Do I need to get a player that will play these
types?  If that is the case, can someone suggest a very good player?  I need
it to be blind friendly of course.  Also, I will need tons of room due to I
am a audible book buff because of the BookPort.  I really love this
bookport.  Andy.
