I don't know of anybody who can't already read NLS books on a player they
don't already have available. The only issue, I repeat, is purely personal
convenience...a device like the BP is easier to carry around than is a
four-track cassette player and people are seemingly incapable of exerting
that much effort.

I still say that a person who really wanted to break the code could do so 
and make books available.  I certainly do not want to break their code. 
Their severe protection is just making it hard on most people who simply 
want to read NLS books on the devices they already own.  If RFB&D could make

it kpossible for us to read books on the current bookport, then NLS could 
make it far less difficult.  Of course, HumanWare stands to profit greatly 
from all of this proprietary stuff.  I wonder how many decoding problems NLS

has experienced anyway?
