I'm also in this camp, for the most part. The exceptions are really, really
good audiobooks with great narrators--all too hard
to find, it seems. Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" books are incredible
to listen to, for example. And I would never
read those with synthetic speech. But they are unabridged novels with full-cast
narrations that are done very well.
But for many things, including most novels, I would definitely prefer the
synthetic speech.
