are their access problems with ITunes U? and, by the way, to get and
play stuff in ITunes for windows and Mac iis possible. It's just not
pretty. It's thhe more advanced stuff that's hard in both platforms.

Hi,
Thanks for that correction. I just thought it was a Cocoa Application.
Interestingly enough, Apple might have a new problem on their hands.
Recently iTunes U was launched. Many Colleges and Schools are jumping
on the iTunes U band wagon. What will they do when they find out how
many accessibility problems exist for blind people having full and
complete access to the course presentations through iTunes.
I suppose the sival Rights people might have fun with this one.

Hello,
I agree with all you have stated. However, this begs the question.
If Native Applications in Cocoe should be accessible, why is not
Apple's own flagship programs like iTunes not truly VoiceOver
accessible.
Hi Dan,
Ah, a sore point for Apple (and Apple supporters). iTunes isn't a
Cocoa app. I don't have any inside information but I believe iTunes
remains mostly inaccessible due to issues related to maintaining it
as a cross-platform application. Again, I don't have any inside
info but that's what I get through the grapevine.
