Chris, >From what I was able to show the lady, whom I spoke with, today, it appears to be a situation where you have to enter every time, but, I couldn't absolutely vouch for that, because I did not go through with entering the code, going into the site, then backing out (with bookmarking it, I suppose), then going back in. That would be the way to follow through on this wouldn't it?

Ok, let's cut through the bs about which company is better at what and let me ask a question which, i hhopewill get an answer so that it will be more clear. what I can't figure out is this. is this a question of having to enter a captcha *every* time you listen, or is this for setting up an an account to become a member and listen one time only? Because if it's a one time only thing, then they could very easily set up a system like the other companies out there have and have an audio representation. if it's random and it must occur before you listen every time, this could proove to be more challenging. and not to just blind people, or whatever term you choose to use for us. there are an increasing number of people out there with vision that is getting worse day by day because they might be getting older or other reasons and this effects them too. I understand Siriu's need to do this from a business standpoint, but they've got to be held accountable for making their service accessible to everybody, blind or sighted. Hopefully we'll get some answers on this.
