Nice speech quality
★★☆☆☆
No support anymore, I did pay a while ago for the voices, but now you can't download or install voice anymore. Emails are not answered or bounce back
★★☆☆☆
Does not work, none of the voices can be activated. Has probably been abandoned.
★★☆☆☆
I tried to email them and the email is no longer valid. Their voices used to sound the most human, but now I cannot install a voice because I'm told that I have no internet connection when I do. What is up with that?
