Heres the thing on text to speech.
When you read, don't you read with intonations, and assign 'pictures' and mannerisms to the characters in the books?
Audio books read by talented people can duplicate this.
How is an automated voice, male or female, going to do this? I have this picture of the female voice on Star Trek (the original) reading a book.
Not really enhancing the experience.
Would love to actually hear these 'voices' reading a book.
