If it makes you all feel at ease I can write the developer of BlindyTV and ask them if what they are doing is ok given the copyright holders and such laws. Happy bookshare related working to you all and happy reading books from Bookshare and other means as well.

wrong! 1, the law applies to the top 25 television markets not the top ten.2, the law applies to the top five cable networks regardless, meaning you will get description on say TNT or USA even if you do not live in the top 25 and or your provider does not say include a major markets station. if they do you get that as well. 3. the law applies to all cable and satellites providers with more than a certain number of subscribers. I believe it is 50k but I am not looking at the law as I write. I am giving you a link tot he data though.e. 4. any affiliate can still turn on the description, it is free and simply needs to be done if asked.*facts!* at the site below. http://acb.org/node/1014this I am blind therefore I deserve pity and can steal all I want thinking is why in part at least its not already in the top 50 markets although that comes in about a year two at most...you are so busy stealing that you are not using the law that supports you. Give me a break. some of these folks have been describing shows for years on top of all the major films coming out each week with it. and someone comes along blames the media industry that is supplying the content to cover their violation of copyright and roots it in lies like the below. top ten markets indeed.Site again, http://acb.org/node/1014 Karen On Tue, 22 Jan 2013, Ann Parsons wrote:To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank Email to bookshare-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Put the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the Subject line.

Yes, it is a federal law that this be so. However, and this is a big, big, big, however, if you do not live in the top ten marketing slots of these carriers you will get *no*, I repeat *no* described Video Service. This is the reality of the situation. Believe me, I know. Rochester is eighty, that's eighty in Time Warner's oh, so, carefully laid out marketing plan. We may not see DVS until 2020.I, for one, am very happy to see blindy TV, thank you very much. Laws are great, but if they aren't enforced and if they allow those to who it applies to drag their feet, use pompous excuses as to why they aren't implementing them, then the laws are worthless, period!Ann P. -- Ann K.
