I agree David. Although I am having one interesting problem. I did a batch conversion from .rtf files to .mp3. In every case, the last few words of the text were bitten off. I thought it was a fluke so I did it again and got the same results. If anyone knows something about TextAloud, I sure could use some pointers. I have also made a request for help from the support group at nextup.com but they aren't very fast in responding to requests for assistance. I am sure that there's a solution but I don't know what it is just yet. If anyone can shorten this trip for me, I'd appreciate that. All in all though, I like TextAloud and it does exactly what I want it to do. For the recorde, the "biting off" process seems to occur when you convert to .mp3. When the file is read directly, that doesn't happen.
