Apple recently made a statement about their new iTunes software for the blind. More announcements are to be made in the near future, but the details are in the making. I think that this is a wonderful advancement for Apple. Giving the blind the chance to easily access music in a very similar means than average people is very promotional to their other products. Basically with this new software Apple is making a statement that literally everyone can use their products. I'm not sure exactly how this software will work, but it appears that the functions will have sound effects and directional voices to help maneuver the program.
I think Apple really started something with these advancements. As of now there are very few computer programs that are easily accessible for the visually disabled. Judging on the success of this product after its releasment, I think that many other software companies will begin other products of similar function.
