[Jan Whitaker]

the market speaks:
from someone on the vision impaired persons list:

>I'm just writing to let everyone know the
>www.sanity.com.au
>site has taken a turn for the worst  and is no longer usable.
>There now using java script on the site and the my account section 
>the my alerts and wish list features can't be accessed anymore.
>I've written to sanity about this and as per usual from a giant 
>company like Sanity, no reply at all.
>
>This is a step backward regarding accessability issues and equal 
>access to websites.
>I've decided to no longer shop at sanity for this  reason and am 
>wondering what other sites similar to sanity are available for 
>buying cd's in Australia?
>I've since started shopping at
>www.chaos.com
>based in Victoria and there fantastic.
>A great site easy to navigate and screen reader friendly.
>If anyone has any other great sites that work well for buying cd's 
>online, please let us all know.
>
>I want everyone to know sanity don't care about equal access to 
>visually impaired people and i'll never shop at their stores or have 
>anything to do with them again.
