So many books when you want them
Opens the door to new books without waiting for the mail. I download the zip file to my laptop. Then I create a folder with the title of the book. For example "Johnny Tremain". Then I unzip the files into the folder and copy the folder onto the cartridge. This way I can keep multiple books organized on the cart. Easier to delete books which are already read this way. So much better than using a standard USB drive sticking out of the side of the player Needs a special cable available from Amazon for five bucks.

It works!
I bought one of these cartridges for my grandma who has the audio player. I currently don’t have access to the talking library so I downloaded an mp3 of a book from LibriVox and put it on the cartridge. It works just like a USB stick, just copy & paste the files you need. You do need a USB extension cable so you can plug the cartridge into your computer. I bought mine at Walmart for $5. The cartridge is a minty green color, not a royal blue like the picture shows but that doesn’t matter to me or grandma. Most importantly, my grandma is happy she can listen to more books now!

Glad we can get blank cartridges now.
Perfect for putting many talking books on one cartridge. Just remember, you'll need to get the cable so you can download to it.
