Would you not have thought that Apple would be making their web site for the store and their program for access to the system compliant with current access norms by now. They seem to have managed to reinvent the wheel again, but made it square.
First, the iTunes store is only accessible through the iTunes application. It's not an actual online website as such.
The content of the "site" is actually accessible as far as I'm aware. What is problematic is NVDA's being able to access the browser in the iTunes application.
So the question is does this webkit have accessability apis that nvda can use? If Jaws is still a no no, one must assume no???
iTunes does actually work fully with JAWS, as well as some other screen readers I believe. I don't know how they are accessing the browser component, but NVDA can't access this.
