My wife has vision, but likes the audio description because she can
multitask and still know what's going on with the story on the TV.

I wouldn't say my son likes video description, but he does like it when
watching a movie with me. He's curious about what video description chooses
to describe, and he's interested in seeing how I experience a movie.

You are lucky to have such a wife. I have close friends who will not watch
a described movie with me because they hate description so much.

My sighted wife also enjoys audio description. Especially on mysteries.
They often point out things she would have missed. 😊

Well, my mom is not a fan of audio description at all. It’s too distracting
for her seeing as she can see. my dad doesn’t mind it, but I think he just
does it for the benefit of me or you know what benefits me sometimes. But I
do know subsided, people that enjoy it. One of my friends is an audio
describer technically being a reader that reads the audio description script
that was written for him I think he even does the Picard series. His name is
Roy Samuelson. He enjoys listening to audio description as well. He is fully
sided.

Lana,
Mark was saying the videos do not include the Audio Description track, but
he failed to use the word "description" in his statement.
Yes, they have the full audio and sound effects, minus the description
track for the blind.
Apparently, if you want to buy the video, with full audio including audio
description, you need to buy it through Prime.
I personally am fine with just the free MP3 with no video but all the
sounds plus audio description. My wife who is sighted, isn't a big fan of
Sci-Fi.

Are you saying that the episodes come with video only? No dialogue or
music, or sound effects? or anything? That doesn't make sense, even for a
sighted viewer.

Hello Everyone,
Well, a list member who is also a Star Trek fan, just purchased Picard,
Season 1, from the iTunes store. He plans to buy season 2, also, from
iTunes.
He informed me that the audio track is not included in the purchase.
Wow!
I am so surprised given that the audio track is included on Amazon Prime
Video.
Given that the show was produced at the Amazon Studios, I guess I should
not be too surprised, at that.
Like all of my other television series purchases from iTunes, I probably
wouldn't let the lack of an audio track stop me from purchasing the show
but if I can get the same episodes, at the same price, with audio
description from Amazon Prime Video, then so be it.
Well, off to the Amazon Prime Video Store, I go.

I have not purchased that series. I did listen to season one from
audiovault.net which of course is just the audio file, no Pictures.
I have a few movies from iTunes that have audio description.
Perhaps this is one where you need to ask Apple directly.

Hello Everyone,
The television series Star Trek, Picard has been produced with an
audio description track.
Now I know that those who subscribe to Paramount Plus, CBS All Access,
etc.
have access to that audio track.
To my surprise, the iTunes Store sells both seasons of Star Trek,
Picard, also. I am assuming that when the third and final season is
released in February, 2023, it will be available for purchase in the
iTunes store, as well.
My question: Has anyone purchased a season of Star Trek, Picard from
the iTunes Store? And if so, was the audio description track included?
Why am I asking when I can simply buy a season and discover the
answer for myself?
Since I plan on buying Star Trek, Picard, normally, I would simply
buy the first season and hope for the best. However, in this
instance, the series is also being sold in the Amazon Prime Video
store. And, unlike the product description in iTunes, Amazon Prime
Video clearly labels the series as having an audio track included with
purchase.
While I have purchased several items from the Amazon Prime Video
Store, given a choice, I prefer to purchase my video content from the
iTunes Store, if possible.
So, in short, I was just curious if anyone had purchased the show
from iTunes and if the audio description track had been included with
the purchase.
All replies appreciated,
Mark
