I'm looking at a major upgrade in computer systems, and may buy some new voices at the same time. I'd love some feedback on which voices the rest of you prefer to use when reading Bookshare books. I'm leaning towards the Acapela voices. I have four of the AT&T Natural voices right now, but I've heard that the Acapela voices sound better and do a better job on pronouncing words. I'm also curious about the quality of the Real Speak voices and the Cepstral voices that are out there.

All opinions and experiences, positive and negative, on these appreciated! smile.

i am assuming there is nothing to be done about the voices on the stream. I do not usually listen to books on my computer, but if i were to do so, which programs are most of you using on the computer to listen, and where can I find the different links to hear different voices? Thanks.
