Hey, I sent a brief message to CC Chapman of the Podsafe Music Network probably an hour or so ago and I got his response which I'm forwarding to the list in case you're interested. This is a first step; Here's hoping for continued progress in this area.

Hi C.C.,
I'm the blind guy who signed up a few weeks ago and enjoy your site so far.
I did discover some fairly large hoops to jump through while playing tracks.
Actually, I performed a demonstration of how us blind people can use the
site with commonly used Windows screen reader technology and spoken output
on my most recent podcast. I accomplish two goals with my show;
1 - Show the world how us as blind people can nogotiate about the web and in
particular, the Podsafe Music Network web site.
2 - Draw attention to some of the difficulties that blind users can currently run into with the PMN site.
To get more details, I invite you to listen to my most recent episode of the
HolmesGrown Solutions Podcast at
http://www.holmesgrown.com/podcasts/HGSA-2005-10-28.mp3 for the direct link
or http://feeds.feedburner.com/holmesgrown for the RSS feed.
Sorry for the length of the show but I would hope that this program might help morph Podsafe Music Network into a site that is even better than it currently is.
Thanks for the time.
