One is for products (hdwr/softwr)

One is for content



Aren't we making content be its own section?



Oh ? if we merge content and software?.. uffda ? that will get confusing.
I guess we now have content that contains players of content.



Can we just go back to 1990s ?

Do we need to be careful about distinguishing between provisions in:

"Section 4. Additional Provisions for Audio-Visual Players or Displays"
and
"Section 6.2/3 If Audio and/or Video Content"

And/or add something here that acknowledges that on a PC, the audio
equivalents can be provided through general AT as it would be for any other
software.

Allen, I understand and agree with the requirement for providing the audio
equivalents when the multimedia is closed like a DVD player. However, this
provision does not limit the requirement to those types of environments.
As written, it would apply to all multimedia content. My concern is the
scope of the provision is too broad.
