I'm pretty sure the publishers tell Amazon to jump and Amazon says "How high?"

I think it's ludicrous that publishers think TTS is a threat to Audiobooks or Movies or other adaptions of the original book. Maybe in 5 years when the voice doesn't sound like a robot, but as for now I'd rather listen to an audiobook read by Matt Damon or Morgan Freeman (which I usually buy from audible).
