Printer-friendly versionI have been visually impaired since I was diagnosed with M.S. at age fifteen, over twenty-eight years ago. I have struggled to access print media while at university and at law school, as well as in my professional career. I looked forward to the read-aloud features of the Kindle and was quite dismayed by Amazon's decision to misinterpret copyright law in order to avoid litigation. It is difficult enough to access print media without artificial obstacles placed in our way.
