I highly suggest it. It makes MTurk far easier to use as well. Sorry for the late reply, I got…. distracted by doing a transcript myself. Thanks for the suggestion, I had a look at it, but apparently they do not want to to transcription:  So I went to the transcription service they advised: castingwords.com. They do transcription in which the price is based on minutes of text, the cheapest is $ 1 per minute, the most expensive one is $2,50 per minute. This would mean the average transcription would cost between 60 and 150 US$.
As I am currently not part of the 1 percent of the population that spends their money on islands, airplanes, Bugatti Veyrons and party donations (all for the benefit of the creation of employment of course!), I assume we have to wait until there is a not-for-profit company funded in Canada, so that we can start donations flowing in that direction, and decide if it is wise to spend it on such a service. In the meanwhile I have completed my first transcription, of Chuck's (and others) 2008 session on Best Pratices. If you are interested in commenting about the format or have an idea in which we could add such transcriptions to the movies, please let me know. I can send you this first sample, and we might work something out that can be of use to others.
