The first download link is for Heather and Ryan only in order to
offer a smaller download for people who just want to try these two
voices (225 MB) versus the full American English package (635 MB)
which contains 7 voices in total (among which two older generation
HD voices, two kid voices, and another high quality female voice
called Laura).
After you purchase, you will get an activation code that will
activate all of these voices, irrespective of which ones you
install or installed. You can of course also order the product on CD.
Just for clarity, 99 USD is the price for North America. Elsewhere
the prices is 99 euro excluding VAT. Now, before someone starts
complaining that the euro price is too high because the value of
the dollar is so low these days, please take into account that
AssistiveWare and Acapela Group are based in Europe and face all
their costs in Euros. So normally everyone should be paying a price
based on the Euro price. However, with the current exchange rate
this would mean that North American users would have to pay around
140 USD. In terms of price experience that would feel much higher
for the average North American than the euro price feels for the
average European. So we adjusted the dollar price downward to match
the North American market. Thus with 99 USD / Euro, European users
are not overcharged, American users are undercharged.

I say that because on the site it says Heather and Ryan only. It
list this choice first and then the five voice package. I was
figuring if it was giving you a choice and it says Heather and
Ryan only they would be cheaper. Why did they single these two out?

All the information you're requesting is easily available on the
web site which I link below. You have to buy the voices in
language groups. You cannot purchase them on a per-voice basis.
Given the price reduction, I think this is more acceptable now
than it was previously, and I'm pleased that the voices are
within better reach of consumers. I hope to pick up a couple of
languages some time in the next few months.
