I wish the graphics were labeled but they may not even understand the problem as a sighted person can look at the screen and see right away what to do. I think blind people need to remember this when they write or call. They need to spend a little more time than they do explaining what software vendors can do to address the problems of blind people and not just shouting that a software package is inaccessible. As to inaccessibility, all one needs to do is have someone with some sight sit down with them and label graphics. Just in case you haven't seen it, the graphics change a little depending on whether you're in playlist or cd burning mode. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stuart Russell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, April 18, 2004 11:14 PM Subject: Re: inquiring about Rhapsody
