[musictlk] Inaccessible online contact forms and Websites

[Annabelle Susan Morison]

I hate it when that happens! More than anything, I hate when companies don't
respond to emails within a timely manner like their websites tell you they
will. For example, Vectormedia Software in England hasn't responded to my
emails in a timely manner. Their website,
http://www.vectormediasoftware.com, specifically states that they respond to
most requests within 24 hours. This is really confusing, because I don't
know whether they mean 24 hours, like regular hours in a day, or 24 hours,
as in business hours. The last time I received an email from them was on
July 21, 2010, and they haven't sent me any emails since then. I know they
recently switched locations. They moved from 18 High Fields, Halifax,
Yorkshire HX6 3AN, to 173 Stiles Road, Bradford, Yorkshire BD7 4RF. What do
I do? It seems as though I may have to send them a letter via Registered
Mail, which I just found out is going to cost me $11.98, plus $2.90 for
postage. Isn't that crazy?

Hi, it's Joshua Lester. Before the moderator accuses me of going off
topic, this has something to do with musicians. I'm tired of musicians
in general putting inaccessible contact forms on their sites. Those
forms include security codes, that we have to type in, in order for
the E-mails to send. I'm fine with security, but they should do what
some sites are already doing. They're putting an audio file there, so
you can hear those characters, that they want you to type in. Two
sites of interest, are of blind musicians. Gordon Mote, and Ronnie
Milsap have inaccessible forms on their sites. Gordon, is a Southern
Gospel singer/musician, and Ronnie Milsap is a famous Country star.
They're both blind. They should have thought about that. I have also
noticed that some sites have music as soon as you go on their site.
You can't shut it up! It's hard to hear Jaws reading something, when
their music is blasting at you! I can hit escape, on some sites, and
that shuts it up. Some sites, however, aren't that easy. What I'm
calling for is across-the-board accessibility regulations on all
Websites, be they music, news, or other. I'm tired of this mess! These
people should be more considerate.
Blessings, Joshua
