I've been producing DAISY books with synthetic voices for quite some time. I also seem to recall that TPB in Sweden also does as well. Apple permits the production of books for the disabled without license fees using their voices. I will try and get permission to demonstrate one with their new Alex voice soon.

Leaveraging Digital Technology for Books in an iTunes World.


Press Release.
Friday, June 22, 2007.
ArcheBooks Publishing (www.archebooks.com) announced today the release of its first "mBook," an Audio Book recorded in MP3 file format. However, this MP3 Audio Book isn't simply a narrated novel with audio files compressed from traditional CD format into the MP3 format -- no, the narrator itself is a digital creation. This is an example of state-of-the-art Text-To- Speech (TTS) technology, using natural sounding human voice engines created and 
commercially licensed to ArcheBooks by NeoSpeech (www.neospeech.com).
