That is not what he is saying. There is a difference. The difference is as simple as this: Most ebooks cannot be read by your PC using text-to-speech because the DRM (or something else)
TURNS OFF that capability. You have to purchase a specific product with audio rights.
In contrast, he says, Amazon
TURNS ON the audio capability in every ebook it sells for the Kindle, but Amazon has not paid for or negotiated the right to do so. It simply has done so as part of its converting ebooks for the Kindle.
