The site is complex, but I have had good shopping experiences. If you get
your account set up so that you have all your payment info and shipping
details stored in my experience it's a very good shopping experience
compared with other sites.

Hi all,

The so called accessible site is just as cluttered with junk as the main
site!  There needs to be a quick shop option where one logs in, does a
search for something, get details or read reviews if needed,  select buying
option and place order and get the heck out of there (log off).  Anything
else is unnecessary clutter for me! I'm always getting tangled up with
Amazon Mom!  This will never apply to me yet this happens on the so called
accessible site!  I can fiddle around for one or two hours and quit because
I'm too tired to purchase anything! I may try Ebay!

>> Hi all!
>> I used Amazon.com for a few years until they killed their accessability.
I tried a few items of there's but no luck. I have since ditched them and
stuck with ITunes instead. I already downloaded my music I got from them and
they are now in my ITunes Match, just right where they belong. I don't like
Amazon.com any more because they turned their backs and betraied us blind
screen reader users. Yuck!!! We either need to boycot them as I have done or
raise our canes and never let Amazon.com hear the end of our complaint
Saints.

unacceptable.  What do you all think? I would encourage everyone to bother
amazon about this. We should be able to download the music we have
purchased. Thoughts?

not accessible with voiceover on my mac, and the old amazon mp3 downloader
is broken. Is there anything els I can try? Thanks.
