Itunes has been very jaws friendly since version 10 and up.  You can use the
tab key to get around, and even put your searches in a list view by using
F6.  Jonathan Mosen does a great pod cast on Itunes with jaws.  You can find
the direct link for this podcast here
http://www.freedomscientific.com/FSCast/default.asp

This should tell you all you want to know.  It's 2 parts, and part 2 will be
released this month.

Although I can't find my Jaws 10 and 11 CDs so am using 9 which also does
not play well with iTunes, and so can't help you, I can share your
frustration!
Wouldn't you think sometime between about Jaws 7 and now someone would have
made iTunes accessible and easy to use? Either Apple maybe with an alternate
logically organized and simplified site or maybe Freedom Scientific working
with the current site?

We have a simplified already accessible search engine like google by means
of the Research feature which is already about as accessible as a  Web site
can be but are left unable to use something like iTunes, something one might
expect a lot of blind people with a full spectrum of computer skills to want
to access.

Can they be collaborating with Apple to drive us from Microsoft and Windows
or maybe to change over to another screen reader? Surely not!

What ever the business strategy might be isn't obvious to me at least but I
think I am beginning to get some sense of it.

If you do find an answer please share it with the rest of us.

Dale Leavens.
