Hi Dane, Yep, I came off with the €75 when I purchased it. I don't regret the purchase either. I like how it doesn't require you to buy individual voices, but you can even install the different voice variants, like compact if you care about that. Honestly though, I'm not sure if most people would use though given the excellent response time. I actually use these voices on my USB whenever I'm using the computers at school for Cisco and creating connections between the computers with the equipment. Since it works with Putty and even reads excellently, I see no need to complain.
