Imagine a group of friends having a good time, talking about different things. After a while, they start to talk about the Da Vinci Code film. Some of them had read the book and had not watch the film yet, others had read the book and also watched the film, so all of them have a good knowledge of what is the story about, so they can participate in the discussion.
Imagine now that one of those friends is blind.
Some years ago, he would have been out of the discussion. He would not have been able to watch the film, and unless someone had read the book to him (hundreds of pages!), of course he would not have been able to know about it.
But he is one of the most active participants in the discussion, talking about every detail of Da Vinci Code. How? Because he owns a Da Vinci Code Audiobook!
An audio book for the blind is an excellent solution, and not only best sellers as the mentioned audio book are found in audio book stores, but also thousands of different titles across hundreds of categories, such as history, humor, business, self help and many more.
And every day appear new ones, so in the near future they will find almost any printed book as an audio book. For the blind these are excellent news, they will be able to listen to all kind of books, and never be out of a discussion about a best seller.
