Hi Cal,

I had an eye on Ivona already. The problem is it's not as free as Google or
Bing TTS. There is only a 60 days trial and the actual pricing after the
beta period is also unclear.

At least the german voice from Google is IMHO as good as the voice from
Ivona (in fact it's even more applicable as it sounds more formal while the
Ivona female voice might have a slightly Berlin accent or so).

Let's see and keep an eye on what happens with Invona (also now that Amazon
has acquired it).


Cheers,
Julian
