Wow, if anything I would feel ebooks would make it more accessible for the blind by being usable in braille readers and text-to-speech! This was a lawsuit that shouldn't of happened.
- limmeau 16y agoTheoretically, yes, but devices which do not output all of a book's text to anything which claims to be a Braille reader are easier to develop DRM for.
- elai 16y agoKindle software for the blind/braille readers is something I can see amazon supporting.
- limmeau 16y agoIt would certainly be good for their image if they supported blind users (apart from the existing text-to-speech function). However, a general interface to a Braille display is necessarily one which transmits the letters of the book in reading order, so I don't see how they can implement that without opening up a big gap in their DRM.
