  Looks interesting. Though I still prefer Dr. Lilley's voice.

  Have you tried Odiogo.com I like their quality?

  Quality is nice, but odiogo is a commercial service - i.e. it adds some kind of commercials inside the text and afaik it requires two things: all articles to be available through RSS and RSS should include the whole content of an article, not just the description.

  Nevertheless, I'm trying to get a better quality voice for http://spokenmises.org

  Cool technology, but I prefer a human voice with more emotion.

  On that note, could I volunteer my time to record some items for Mises.org? I've looked into volunteering to read for the blind, but the only organization I've found for doing so in the Baltimore/DC area is tax-funded, so I choose not to give them my time.

  They also make it very difficult for one to volunteer. It's in downtown DC, and they want you to commit to two hours a week before 7 PM. Anyone who lives and works in this area knows that unless you work downtown it's nigh unto impossible to get anywhere near downtown by 7 PM if you work until 5 PM. Typical.

  In either case, I'd be very interested in helping out, if someone would care to let me know how I could go about doing so.

  Well I am using their services for the last 4-5 months and other than "This article is brought to you by Odiogo.com, the web read to you", I haven't heard a single ad.

  Take a look, this is my blog:

  This is a professional podcast for Jerusalem post:

  Now about having a dedicated RSS with full content available for purely Odiogo is not that difficult of a thing.
