Victor Reader products developed by VisuAide allow reading of talking books recorded on CD-ROM, meaning fast, easy navigation through the structure of a book. Unlike talking books on cassette, Victor Reader allows you to jump straight to a specific section or passage in a snap, skip from page to page, consult the table of contents, even insert bookmarks, and more. No more rewinding and fast-forwarding through a cassette to find a specific passage - not to mention that just one CD can contain a whole book !
