Hi again Russ,
Just to add to the thread, I've just managed to get access to a .BRF file
and test it on my UK English Version 5.03 unit and it does indeed read the
file properly. I don't have access to any .BRL files so can't confirm if
they play or not but I certainly stand corrected on the issue of .BRF files.

If it's a licensing issue, I would be interested in knowing why the Book
Port Plus, Victor Reader Stream, and Booksense all support reading brf and
brl?

It sure is strange, what one allows and another does not.
