If you go to Audible.com, there is a note at the top of the page introducing their new alternate version of the site that is supposed to add more accessibility. The URL of the new page is www.audible.com/access
I haven’t checked out how much difference the page makes as of yet as I don’t have a lot of problems with the site using Window Eyes 8. I am of two minds as I am glad that they are taking accessibility seriously, but I am not really a huge fan of alternative page versions since I would prefer that things move towards better accessibility of the same site used by sighted users. I hope it is not like Amazon’s alternate site, which to me is actually less useable since it does away with a rather large amount of information to allow them to streamline the page. That one is more useful as a mobile site to me rather than as a good alternative to the standard site. Hopefully the Audible site will be more useful. At any rate, I thought it would be good to post this to the list so that others can try the site out and determine whether or not they find it an improvement for Window Eyes users. Whatever your experience, I highly recommend letting Audible know your opinions as I have found them to be quite willing to listen to their customers.
