Hi Terri and all,
Well, it sounds like the Victer Reader Stream would be the best way for all of us to go, if you want access to all menus, folders, etc.
It costs more, but you sure get the access.

Well one big disappointment with the DS-50 family of recorders/MP3
players is that when you  load books from Audible or other digital book
sources, and MP3 files, you have no way of knowing what book or MP3 file
you are selecting once you get to the folder. You don't even hear a
message like "book 1" "book 2" file 1" file 2", etc. I really got used
to being able to hear the file name spoken with Mobile Speak Pocket on
my phone and PDA. It's hard to go back to less accessibility.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Olympus DS-50 VS Victor Stream?

If your not planning on accessing daisy books, are there any other
advantages to the victor Stream over the Olympus DS-50 that are worth
the extra money?  Thanks in advance.
