there is a program called copytrans that is suppose to be accessible but the
person who did the claiming seems to be the only one having any success with
it.

Subject: Re: iTunes Alternatives
Previously I went looking for a good media manager, and several of them
claimed to support the iPod. I didn't have an iPhone at the time, so I
didn't care about that particular feature. You don't say what OS or
screen reader you're using, so I'll assume you're talking about Windows.
Winamp and FooBar are both accessible and have iPod support either built
in or as a plug in. A page with links to more information is at
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29716/heres-five-alternatives-to-itunes-10-for-easily-managing-your-ipod/
Media Monkey and Songbird also claim to support the iPod, and I had some
success with them with respect to accessibility, although at the time, I
wouldn't call either of them accessible. Songbird has been changing
rapidly, so it might be worth taking a look at again.
A more comprehensive list of iTunes alternatives, some of which may be
accessible, can be found at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_iPod_managers
On Linux, I see that RhythmBox, Banshee, Clementine and Amarok all have
some level of iPod support, and I know RhythmBox is accessible.
I haven't heard any of these alternatives discussed on list yet though,
so if you give any of them a try, I'd be curious to know how you get a
long. I suppose I may try RhythmBox at some point, but I'm pretty much
trying to rely on the cloud for now.
Another option is to use the cloud. I use Ubuntu One for example, which
has a Ubuntu, Windows, IOS and Android client. I don't think there's a
Mac client though, at least not yet.

As far as I know there isn’t an Itunes alternative, let alone an

Hi, can someone recommend some accessible iTunes alternatives for the
PC? I’m interested in a means to transfer music, files, ringtones, etc.
without going through iTunes, if that’s possible. Thanks so much in
advance.--Joe
