Actually, iTunes is indeed accessible with a set of scripts made available on this website...
http://www.tandtconsultancy.com/itunes/itunesscripts.html
The site is based in Britain, and I believe the scripts cost about 50 dollars. I have been using them for a while, and they have worked quite well.
As far as the iPod is concerned, unless you're willing to put up with memorizing menus, it isn't the best for a blind user. I've heard that there is a third party working on a program that makes the iPod "speak", but I haven't found the related information on that.
Hope this helps.
Justin

Neither iTuens nor the iPod are accessible to the blind at this time. Heaven knows if they ever will be. Kevin

Hey I was wondering is ITunes accessible to blind people? Because I have a lot of CDS stored on my computer and I'm thinking about getting an IPod to use in the car and load all the songs up onto it, but I'm not goan waste my money if nothing works.
