Well, I plan to write Apple's accessibility team and see if there isn't something that can be done in iTunes to address this issue. We should be able to put the user key on our players. Failing that, perhaps Audible will be receptive to generating a key for other players. I have an iPHone and a Mac, but I also have a Stream. What do other people who have players like Zune and Creative Zen and stuff do when they want to put an audible book on from their Mac? Can they even do that? It seems like a rather serious problem.
