Description

It’s fair to say that RTÉ Player has had ups and downs when it comes to accessibility over the years. With the European Accessibility Act now in full effect, though, the team at RTÉ seem to be rolling out major upgrades. 


In this episode, we take a look at what’s new both on mobile and on the web, and discuss some of the audio-described content that’s available.


In less positive media news, we discuss the discontinuation of BBC Sounds for those in the Republic of Ireland, and we hear about a new accessible coffee machine for wheelchair users.
