The whole point of this new edition of the Victor Reader Stream is to cater 
to those who do not have a computer, never intend having a computer, don't 
know, nor want to know, the first thing about computers, etc. For anyone on 
this list, purchase of this latest iteration of the Victor Reader Stream 
would be a total waste of money, unless for those too lazy to use their 
computer to rip the desired content from the CD and transfer it to an SD 
card.

It does transfer the files directly to the card but if you have a computer, 
there is no need for it.  you can rip any audio disc with ease.

My understanding is that the CD player allows you to transfer content from 
the CD to the Stream without having to first grab and convert the files on 
the computer, but I'm not sure. this would be very handy for listening to 
commercial audiobooks, which aren't always set up for playing on a stereo. 
I'll call Humanware next week to ask questions, and then I'll post to the 
list. If anyone has already done that and can tell us more, please do.
