Hi. I don't own a media center PC but I know of a few people who are using them who are blind, and they use JAWS professional. I can't speak for Window-eyes since I've never had experience with that, however, whoever said that Media center was "inaccessible" was mistaken. See, there's that word again, "accessible", which is very subjective. There is a huge difference between a program that simply will not speak with a screenreader no matter how many scripts or set files you throw at it, and a program that seems unusable, until you learn how to navigate around it. There's always a chance that something can be changed in the program to make it more screenreader friendly, which could help. But in the meantime, I'm drifting off topic here. What I said above could count for any program, audio or otherwise.
