I see the biggest issue here in not being able to access the iTunes
Music Store. Once you have a file there are a number of ways to play
it such as with FrontRow which is accessible. The fact that the
iTunes Music Store is not accessible is a ADA legal concern and I am
somewhat shocked that Apple legal department hasn't taken notice of
that fact. Would Apple ever build an inaccessible physical store?
If I were Apple I would be watching the NFB vs. Target Stores case
very closely because if the courts rule that online stores must meet
the same ADA requirements as physical ones iTunes would make a really
big target to go after.
I think the case can be made that it matters not if your business is
on line or in the physical world, it must be accessible.

Hello Cheryl and list
I am guessing that the reason behind Apple's slowness at
increasingly accessibility for i Tunes is that they are supporting
two versions, one on Mac and the other on Windows.
Besides, there are other programs that may even play for files than
i Tunes and I too only use it to read Audible books.
