AMI-audio is a Canadian radio reading service operated by Accessible Media Inc. (AMI). Launched in 1990 as VoicePrint, the service primarily carries programs with readings of articles from print newspapers and magazines for the benefit of listeners who are visually impaired or illiterate. The service also carries AMI-produced spoken-word programming dealing with topics related to disabilities and accessibility.
AMI-audio is licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) as a discretionary "must-carry" service; it must be carried on the lowest level of service by all licensed digital cable, satellite television, and IPTV providers in Canada. The service is also distributed via AMI's streaming service AMI+, with individual programs available as podcasts.
