Yes, blind people can now enjoy the show on TV. This is a very good thing. But so too can everyone commuting to work listening to the show on their iPod. This is a great thing in terms of pure numbers. A great example of how accessibility really accomodates a much bigger audience than the particular ‘handicap’ being targetted.

I'd never heard of DVS before, but it shows once again that most of us don't really consider accessibility issues in our everyday lives. And for the record, there are many times when I actually <em>do</em> need my TiVo to keep up with all the little extras in Simpsons episodes. That’s really interesting.
