Re: Making everyone pay for voice dream

2024-03-28 Thread Ivan Icin 
This isn’t the correct information. Microsoft offers you a free tier. It is 
not unlimited but it should fit at least one book a month. So using them in 
Speech Central doesn’t cost anything. Further there will be soon Google AI 
voices and some other services which offer the same or bigger free tier and 
that way you’ll be able to read many books a month for free. 

It is just correct that if you don’t offer that through the API key but 
through the App Store purchase you would have to offer the same for the 
higher price than VDR just to cover costs if all quota is used.

That is the correct email. Thanks! Also you can ask in this thread if that 
is preferred.

Voice Dream an monthly subscription

2024-03-28 Thread leobado1982 
Hello folks. I know that we have been talking a lot about VDR these days, but I 
consider healthy discussions the best way to socialize our likes and dislikes. 
Yesterday I sent a message to VDR support asking for any viability to add a 
monthly subscription, and they told me that in all likelihood, a monthly 
subscription deal will be added very soon.

At this point all I have to say is that no monthly subscription was my only one 
and single pet peeve! I know that probably there are other users like me out 
there hoping for a similar deal. Personally, a monthly subscription gives me 
the possibility to balance my monthly expenses. Also, a monthly subscription 
gives the user the opportunity to see VDR performance and how much one needs 
the app, in a nutshell, you’re having an active subscription while you’re 
mulling things over! Go VDR! Thousands of readings waiting for me 

 

Cheers,

Leo Bado.

 

I have found both freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, 
for those who understand us enslave something in us.

Khalil Gibran.
