It seems premature to suggest that it's a frivolous lawsuit, i.e. "No discrimination there," just because you can't see the point.  I can't see the point either, but I'll continue to suspend my judgment at least until I hear a few of the points made during the actual decision.

Well I was asking for specifics, but only Chad responded with some broad complaint that they cannot access the site. So my statement is based on that being the actual complaint.

Is there any point in me making my online site for selling contact lenses blind friendly? When i say " is there any point" i mean, if i were a billion dollar company and someone wanted to sue me over it, should i be worried?

Answer that first, then we can talk.

I would say read Shmokes' replies regarding products versus services.  I have no idea how this would play out regarding niche services, either.  I also don't see how what you're saying relates to the current topic.   :dunno

Yes they do sell they're website....almost all target commercials say in them "and visit target.com for more valuable info" That is luring people to the website hence it is a selling point hence it can be a "product of" target. And yes it is a service to but it generates income which makes it...again...a product. Go here and read the definition of a product before you start talking.

In order for that to be accurate, you'd have to consider the Target retail building a product as well.  They do the same thing with physical stores.  The website is simply the infrastructure by which they offer their products.  In this regard it is exactly like the building that a store sits in.

EVERYTHING in retail "generates income".  It is all part of the "revenue vs operating cost" equation.
