if you are having some thought process that you Need ITunes just to
sub to a podcast, then you sure don't no much about podcasting.

Given enough time and effort you could find individual alternatives
for each of the things that iTunes does well collectively. Some
podcasts require you to subscribe through iTunes, in which case
there is no alternative. I've never run across a ripper that
converted to AAC format, which I prefer over MP3. It's all a
matter of taste. I like iTunes and i use it under Windows, but i
don't claim that my opinion is right for everyone. *smile*

cause if you can't recommend any alternitives to replace itunes
then your oppenion has no weight.

dear god, I agree. I'm not quite sure where this blind
fashion (excuse the pun) but damn, its annoying as hell to
hear the first question that is ask when ever I bring up the
mac for the blind is "does it work with ITunes?"
no! and who cares. if you want to buy music there are plenty
of places to do that, podcasting, mp3 and media playere there
are tons of places for that also, itunes is a piece of
garbage in my book and I think its a fashion!!!!

Hi folks,
I don't honestly think that ITunes support is that important.
Okay I'll admit i was more than a little surprised when Voice
Over didntt work with Apple's ITunes - one of its trademark
products, but well do we really need it - I've deleted it
from my mac.

in the mac news websites and a few podcasts on coverage of
Steve Jobs wwdc keynote they say nothing about the new
accessability.
I was glad to see this news about a improved voice over i
guess this will be 2.0 version.
That is super cool though in having the ceo of a major
company like this demo such a small nich highly important
feature like this. Doubt others would be as berave or
thoughtful hint ms.
It would also be great of Apple if they did another beta test
program for leopard accessaibility like they did for tiger
voice over version 1.
From what I heard and read about the leopard features that
were being reported on I was not very impresed and thining I
might pass on it,now I am excitied with the new updated
accessaibility. I hope itunes will be much more useable
this time around and we will able to access the itunes
store with vo.
