Pick 数锐播 when
You are on Windows with 8 GB of memory or more, want it completely free, keep the text on your own machine and work offline, or have a very long novel to finish without paying by the character, and you do not mind installing software and letting your computer take its time.
Visit 数锐播Pick VoiceSmiths when
You are on a Mac, a phone or a modest computer and would rather not install anything; you care about the emotion in each line; you want EPUB import, MP3 and captions, the same cast in other languages, redoing a single line, or a link and a poster to share when it is done.
