[NFBCS] Stuck on Captcha

[Jim Denham]

I don't remember which site I encountered it on, but I encountered a rather cool audio captcha the other day. Basically, it was three short music clips and the instructions were to enter the number of the clip which had a different instrument. The audio was two short violin solos and then a trumpet solo. I entered number three and was in. I'd never heard of using music as a captcha before.

            This is one of the "type the numbers" ones-for both picture of text and audio. Normally, I can hear them well enough, but, for some reason, either I keep getting this one wrong or it just is not letting me past. FYI, it is the Apple website for checking warranty coverage.

There was one type of captcha that kept throwing me off.

It said identify the crowd.

I would hear various backgrounds items and they say a code.
Turns out it was literally the sound of a crowd and you heard a crowd.
I kept selecting the one that said play audience or something like that.

Aira is my go to when to difficult. Only drawback is moving mouse where they say to select the tiles. This can be unruly.

            Is there any type of service for reading capptchas? I am trying to verify using one that has an audio captcha, but the audio is impossible to understand, and it has blocked me for trying too many times. Using Chrome or Firefox on Windows 10 with JAWS.
