good point. I had to ask this list how to buy songs when I first
started using Itunes, and so far the way you described is the only way
I know of to purchase tracks.

Still seems like the actual buy process is a little weird. I go to
the iTunes store, the search on Apologetix. Then I go to the Songs
Table and interact with that. Going to the first row I can space to
preview Boulevard of Both Extremes. That all works fine. I then VO-
right a couple times to the price column. At no point does it
announce the Buy Song button which is next to the price. If interact
with that cell in the table all it does is tell me there are five
characters which are $0.99. If I do VO-I for item chooser I just get
a long list of $0.99 text over and over. If I VO-A I still only get
$0.99.
So if I didn't have existing knowledge of the buy song button next
to the price, how would I even know to mess with this? If I VO-M and
go to the Store menu there is no Buy option there either. I also
thought that hitting VO-Space would perform the default action,
which would be to buy the track since that's what my VO cursor was
on. The only way I could activate the buy button was VO-Shift-Space
to simulate a mouse click.
Is it really this convoluted? Silent buy buttons only accessible via
mouse clicks?
