[Blindtlk] Navigating Youtube?

[Jewel S.]

How about using a YouTube to MP3 generator and just enjoying the
accessibility of Windows Media Player's hotkeys?

Google "Youtube to MP3" and you should find several. Or you can go to
Fred's Head (I believe that's APH's blog). They have a blog post about
APH's YouTube to MP3 converter, which is fully accessible and very
useful. All you need is the URL of the video, which you paste into an
edit form, and click convert. Wait a little while, then you can
download the audio file.

For those who have some sight and like to watch the videos, this isn't
going to show you the video, so ignore my advice. But for those of us
who can't see the video and just listen to it, this is great way to
have easier access. You can listen to these MP3 files on anything that
will play them, from Windows Media Player to an iPod to a VictorStream
Reader to much more. Take your YouTube videos with you!

After trying to get around YouTube with JAWS, I gave up and started
using the converter from APH, and am loving it. I hope you'll try it!
