DAISY : Java Glossary

An audio eBook format especially for people who are blind. It combines MP3 and XML (extensible Markup Language). The format has advanced features in addition to those of a traditional audio book. Users can search, place bookmarks, precisely navigate line by line and regulate the speaking speed without distortion. As a result, DAISY allows visually impaired listeners to navigate something as complex as an encyclopedia or textbook, otherwise impossible using conventional audio recordings. O’Reilly now includes DAISY format as an option for downloading eBooks.
