Software Update Makes iTunes Accessible To Blind Users
rickthewizkid writes "Recent updates to the iTunes software allow blind users to access the program without assistance. From the article: 'The new software — which transforms the written information on an iTunes-linked computer screen into speech or Braille — stemmed from an agreement between Apple, the Cupertino, Calif.-based computer company, the National Federation of the Blind and Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley.'" It's not just the actual iTunes app, though; the article notes that this update makes iTunes U useable as well.
that's what i'm talking 'bout...
Unfortunately, blind people won't hear you.
I wonder what the Blue Screen of Death feels like. Prickly?
I use my iPhone every morning without looking at it. I am a master of hitting the snooze area of the screen.
