I think you don't understand capitalism. Amazon & co. will first buy a stake into all companies that provide tools for this task. Then they'll just do a hostile takeover, kill the company and make the tool unavailable for the public. Maybe you can host you own models, but that's just you, that 1% of the people interested in audio books.
