thank you for clarification.  It would be fantastic to get talkingbooks
downloadable for playing on Book Ports.

> Hi Lana,

> The books you are talking about are different from the ones NLS is going
to offer.  NLS is participating in an Overdrive library project that allows
patrons living in states with participating libraries to borrow books in
protected WMA format.  That's the program you're participating in, and as
far as I know no one has said anything about making this format work on the
Book Port.

been sending out on cassette will be available in digital format.  They will
be available for download, and they are in a new format.  As I understand
it, this is the format we know the new Book Port will support.
