Um... so... you do know that blind people can't see the printed page, right? This technology opens up reading these books to them out loud. Requiring an additional license for people with a disability is pretty disgusting. Right now, I can share any books I download with my spouse, children, etc. But if one of them was blind and I wanted to share with them, suddenly I'd need a different license just for them? That doesn't seem right. The author's not going to get any additional money out of us, we'll just not read their book.

FYI the feature being discussed goes the opposite direction: it takes audiobooks and transcribes them to text.

But your overall point still stands.
