Is there a good accessible podcast program that does work with JAWS?QCast is very accessible. I have played with it a bit; though since I typically have been managing my podcast subscriptions via the iPhone for the past few months, I don't use this on a regular basis. http://q-continuum.net/qcast/ I did find it difficult, though, in QCast to isolate particular episodes that had downloaded and copy the individual files to an external drive. It was very good for listening to podcasts directly through my PC. I have found in the past that gPodder works quite well as a podcast aggregator, and I found it easy to find and download episodes represented by individual sound files. But accessibility was not the best, and I often had to play around with the JAWS Cursor quite a bit to get at elements on the screen that had to be manipulated for me to change what I wanted to change. Lots of unlabeled graphics. http://gpodder.org/downloads My favorite podcast aggregator of all time was the Juice Cross-Platform Podcast Receiver, found at http://juicereceiver.sourceforge.net/. You can still download this program, but I don't think its developers are supporting this any more, and it sometimes does not work at all on Windows 7 or above. Just my observations, Bob. I am sure others have had different experience. -Kane
