[Dtb-talk] Audio only movies, a sample

I have found a movie which I am able to distribute as a digital  
talking book. Good Copy Bad Copy (http://www.goodcopybadcopy.net/) was  
released under the Creative Commons (http://creativecommons.org/)  
which permits this kind of reuse. The finished "book" can be  
downloaded from the following link:

As a reminder this is an experiment in producing a motion picture  
soundtrack as a DAISY digital talking book. This would give motion  
picture soundtracks the same advantages as current books have such as  
book marking, pause and restoring to location and a considerable size  
reduction over the DVD version.

This is a DAISY 2.02 "boo" with audio files in playable order meaning  
that it could be played in any standard mp3 playback device as well as  
in a DAISY playback device. The ZIP file is just over 26 MB in size.  
It was produced using my DTBmovie tool on an Apple Macintosh computer.
