Hi Justin,

What specifically are you referring to when you say, "All of this?"  I use
ITunes and Jaws for everything I can, but the redeem using camera feature I
described is an IPhone thing.

I've been an ITunes user since I got my first IPod almost 10 years ago and
have never really encountered the significant problems with ITunes and Jaws
that people have complained about.  With the exception of using the store in
recent versions of ITunes, I've been able to use the program even without
scripts a lot, especially with the hot keys including space and the left and
right arrows for playback.  A lot of it is just tabbing and shift tabbing
around, and knowing how to cut corners with shortcuts.
