Hi,
Sure thing. Try out AOL Music Now. The siteworks well with Jaws and so far as
I can tell, the music I buy plays in my Winamp player. You can also purchase
single tracks for .99 cents each though they do also have a monthly
subscription plan that offers additional perks if you're interested. The site
can be found at www.musicnow.com. I like this music service far more than
Napster.

Hi,
The last time I used Napster was about 6 or 8 months ago and I was using
Jaws 6.0. At that time, the accessibility was about a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10.
Quite a bit of Jaws cursor usage was required but I was able to search for
songs and purchase them without too much trouble. I stopped using it though
when I found out Napster was fooling around with files on my computer. Every
time you purchase a song off of Napster, a license file is placed on your
computer as well. That in of itself wasn't a big deal. I was able to listen
to the music and I was even able to listen to them with Winamp. Then one day
nothing worked anymore, at least as far as Winamp goes. My music wouldn't play
in Winamp any longer. This was critical since I preferred to use Winamp for a
couple of reasons. One, it is very accessible with Jaws. Two, I have an MP3
player that I like to copy my music onto so I would use Winamp to convert the
Napster tracks from WMA files into MP3 files, which would work with my MP3
player. The DRM protection that is included in all Napster tracks wouldn't let
the songs be played on my MP3 player even though my player does have the
ability to play WMA files. Well, to make a long story short, Napster altered
all the license files that were on my computer that made using Winamp
impossible. I was forced to use Windows Media player which I can't stand.
Plus, I don't think you can purchase one song at a time any longer. You now
have to purchase their monthly subscription. Once you end your subscription,
none of the music you download from them will work. With all the bad
experiences I've had with these guys, I wouldn't recommend using them.
