I some how missed the first message in this thread from Lyne stating SoundScape could be back in July. My question is, and this is always my question with statements like this, what is the source for saying it will be back?
Without a reliable source, this is just a useless rumor.

I think part of the problem here is that (in the UK at least) there really aren't that many blindness organizations big enough to take on the commitment of maintaining something like this, let alone that have the knowledge to do it properly. Obviously one solution to this is to just buy the skills in, but just to spin up a small iOS dev team you'd be looking at £300-350K in salary a year, not including all the additional costs of employing them. Such a shame.
