Maybe it should be, but it's not currently illegal to refuse to make your book accessible to the blind or people with other disabilities. It's really the publisher's choice as to whether they want to go that route. A blind user would (probably) be within their rights (under fair use) to convert the content to a form that the TTS would work with, or to transfer it to his/her computer to have it read, but the publisher isn't under any obligation (again, under current law) to supply it that way.
