just roll with it and send a nice note to accessibility concerning anything you
find.

It is easier to understand how 3rd party developers can mess up accessibility

one of their flagship applications, the accessibility guidelines are theirs,
and VoiceOver is on every Apple developer's Mac for testing. I know that there
must be VO users that work at Apple, and, while they might not be able to test
everything before it is released, you'd think that just about all of them would
use ITunes for something or other, and would notice these problems while the
new version is still an internal beta.
Very confusing.

Subject: [macvoiceover] latest itunes breaks accessibility and ringtones:
all;
It appears that with the release of itunes 9.1.2 or whatever it is, we need to
relie more than ever on the vo cursor. it used to be possible to interact with
the songs list and then use arrows to move up and down from song to song, but
now, we must use vo keys with arrows. The regular arrows move from song to
song, but the change in location is not announced by vo.
Ringtones are no longer possible to make with itunes. For some reason, even
when you set an end time, it is not honored.
