I should also add that if you do want to buy a voice I'd do ivona.
and only that because you also donate to nvda and I think the klango
network to.

Hi Michael,
Well, if you are looking for free voices for Windows 7 there aren't a
whole lot to choose from. Basically, you are limited to Espeak from
http://www.espeak.sourceforge.net
which is fairly robotic sounding, but is fast and responsive as a
synthesizer as you are going to find.
However, if you are willing to spend a little cash for a decent voice
there are a lot of choices out there. First, there are the Cepstral
voices from
http://www.cepstral.com
which are fairly decent for games as well as screen readers. There is
the Ivona TTS voices from
http://www.ivona.com
which are a bit expensive, but are among the best sounding voices I
have ever used. There are the Cereproc voices from
http://www.cereproc.com
which aren't too bad. These aren't my favorite, but are worth checking out.
Bottom line, in my opinion unless you are willing to pay $30 or so for
a high quality voice you aren't going to find any better than Anna for
free for Windows 7. Windows 8 has some better SAPI voices, but that's
going to cost you more than just buying some third-party voices from
the sites listed above.
Cheers!
