what do you mean expensive? do you mean we should sue jim showman  
because his scripts were expensive to provide access to sound forge or  
what about talking cakewalk?

Hello Gabe,

As I understand it, the scripts are relatively expensive and do not  
provide
a complete level of access, besides, those make it accessible with  
only one
screen reader. Not real access, IMHO.

there are scripts for jaws users for itun3es which defeats the reason
why this law firm wants to file against apple. I think the nfb just
wants to try and push people aroiund. butthis is apple not target, so
Ihope you are packing a lunch. and I swear I'll be sure to be inon
this one. because as I said, I use it both on mac and windows and it
is accessible.

Hello Gabe,

While iTunes is now mostly accessible on the Mac, it remains almost
completely inaccessible on Windows. Most people, blind or sighted, use
Windows, so that means it is mostly inaccessible to the vast majority of
blind people. It certainly warrants investigation.

because itunes and its related sites are already accessible. there is
no reason to go after a company who already includes a magifyer,
screen reader, and braille in an os for free whichh also includes
itunes accessibility..

our nation, and they are "Stepping out of bounds" Please!  Now that's
a good
one.

I'd also like to know what good it will do to send Apple an e-mail?
