I'm sure that GW Micro would be happy to work with Spotify to make it more
accessible.  It is true that there is a large market, and actually, making
the software accessible has proved to be of benefit for fully sighted
people.  For example, the Tesco website used to have a text only version of
their website, but they found that other people were using that version more
than the standard version, so they took down the standard version.  

I would have thought that it would not be difficult to do something similar
to ITunes in Spotify, by having it in an HTML window, rather than flash as
it seems to be now, and I would think it would only take a small amount of
rewriting.

Subject: RE: spotify app?

Just a brief observation:
Strange, is it not, how, despite the sizable customer base blind 
people potentially offer Spotify, the corporation has so far 
responded with so little enthusiasm to their usability concerns.  I'm 
afraid, Spotify isn't unique in this respect.  I'm afraid this is 
only the beginning of a new era of HCI homogeneity.  the new 
generation of developers straight out of schools, baptized on 
ignorance and weaned on indifference to the world outside social 
networking and reality television.
Sincerely, Matthew
