Okay, so I'm using Jaws 8 point something at the moment, so iI have no
idea
if that will work with the latest version of ITunes. Should I decide to
experiment with it, are there any tricks I s hould know to make using
ITunes
any easier? As I said, all I want to do is buy material I can't buy
anywhere else, convert it to mp3, and play it on portable devices that
play
standard MP3. Yes, I know there are higher quality files out there, but
my
ears don't mind. I really appreciate the help!
Peace,
Kathy

| Hi Kathy.
|
| You can use Itunes as a general music library and player on your PC with
no
| problems at all. If you purchase music from the Itunes store it will be
in
| an Apple proprietary format, usually AAC, and you will need to convert
it
to
| MP3 to play on other devices. You can do the conversion in Itunes
itself
by
| browsing to the track or number of tracks and choosing convert.
|
| There's a bit of a learning curve to Itunes and you need to have
| compatibility right between your screen reader and the version of Itunes
but
| it's perfectly useable once you get into it.
|
| Regards.
