Re: Jaws2018 is out and possible upcoming firefox problem with jaws
That is insane! It's not enough that the user purchases the product for the absurd price of $1200. If you don't keep up with your Freedom Scientific taxes for the privilege to continue to access your computer, you must pay for all the upgrades that you will never use. I'm also extremely concerned now that Freedom basically has a monopoly on commercial screen readers. As I've said, this product is only good for those in work environments that need the efficiency features like text analyzer and scripting capabilities. Forcing someone to pay $500 just to upgrade the screen reader for new versions of Firefox is beyond disgusting! People may have been able to get away with using old versions of JAWS on Windows 7, but the fact is that Microsoft has moved to a biannual schedule for Windows 10 which means you will have to keep your screen reader up to date or lose out as Microsoft makes changes. I'm personally on the Narrator and NVDA bandwagon and will only consider JAWS if it's required for a specific task in my career.
