Here is the question of copyright on described move soundtracks.  It has 
been brought up on other lists that downloading or posting for download 
these soundtracks without charging and paying the usual royalties is, well, 
not currently legal, although it seems everyone does it.
I have listened to free movie soundtracks before, but I justify it by 
purchasing the movie then if it is one that I like or that has good 
description.  (Too bad for the others...;)  Anyway, it takes a lot of effort 
for the various describers to write a script and edit the soundtrack of a 
movie to include audio description.  I think people should respect the 
copyrights, but that is just a soapbox I get on every once in a while.
Happy krafting and listening.

Yes he has a website.  It is www.blindmicemart.com.  He sells mostly new
items but he has some refurbished ID mates for sale.  He is visually
impaired and part of his proceeds go to college scholarships for people who
are visually impaired or their family members.  He also has a lot of
descriptive movies that you can download and listen to free.  The movies do
not include the video but for those of us who are blind that doesn't matter.
