Actually you'd be surprised at what apps are accessible and most
developers are willing to listen. I in fact purchased an app that lets
me listen to thousands of radio stations on the web and the developer
worked with a number of blind folks to make sure his app was as
accessible as possible. He is also a very responsive person and added
a radio station for me that was not in the list.
