Hi Vince,

So the app is accessible?

Chris

Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!

I tried subscribing about 3 years ago and I had trouble getting 
it to work
for me.  I was also disappointed when I found out that some shows 
weren't
available online.  So I canceled and asked for a refund--which 
they said
wasn't refundable.
Hopefully they've changed.  I think most folks are using iPhones 
and other
cellphones to listen to sat radio now.

 Chris, it's very nice to meet you.  Welcome to the list!
 I'm also interested in the question of XM on-line accessibility.

 I have never heard of Sirius XM Streamer, so I'd love to hear 
some
 comments
 on its accessibility.
 Again, welcome to the List, Chris -- and Happy New Year!
  John

 Hi everyone,

 First of all, I want to wish everyone on this list a very happy
 new year and say that I am new to this list! I'm 14 years old 
and
 am in 8th grade in public school here in Maryland.  You have
 probably seen me on other NFB lists, the NABS (National
 Association of Blind Students) or Blind Talk list, as I'm very
 active in the Federation.  With that said, I have a question
 about Sirius XM Internet radio and accessibility.  Has anyone
 found a work-around to using Sirius XM's online radio service
 with JAWS? It seems to be inaccessible to me, at least the one 
on
 siriusxm.com.  I have heard about a program called Sirius XM
 Streamer which makes the internet stream accessible.  But how
 does it work? Thanks for any help!

 Chris

 Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year!
