Teresa, I do feel Apple has some responsibility for the apps they sell. After all they are the only marketplace and they do take a hefty cut off the top of the purchase. Plus, they run it through all sorts of other tests that only they know.
No I don't say they have to require every button be labeled or everything they sell be accessible, but I do think they have the responsibility to note in the product description whether or not it meets some definition of minimal accessibility.

Bringing accessibility issues to developers' attention would do far more toward accessibility than all the protests and lawsuits and blustering.
