Jacob Young's curator insight, June 20, 2021 3:39 PM

This is a really great tool too use for many reasons and with many ways to use it. One of the most prevalent reasons why this stands out is time. In the modern age were constantly finding ways to make things easier to do and more time efficient ways to do them. This allows any text written document to be read to you in a podcast like setting. Outside of those looking to save time or not wanting to read this could also be very beneficial to those who are blind or illiterate. Outside the benefits of this software this is really expanding the need and expectations of future podcast software. I say that the source is very straight forward and insightful and trust worthy. I wouldn't say that it is a commonly used source by audio industry professionals.

I think that this tool can be used to practice pronunciation since having a thick accent can impede other people from understanding them. By using this tool they will be able to better articulate their words.
