Hello, I would be interested about this as well, but don't know what the state of DAISY players on linux is and I never seem to quite get round to having a good look at what is out there. So what are Linux users using? Do we all find other formats, do we not bother about the books which tend to be in DAISY format, have we found a good player or is there another reason a good one isn't a well known fact.
