Just so so!

Chipmunks... imagine Alvin and the chipmunks. Theodore I believe. If he were reading Pali, that would summarize this. Also it shows it is going as 2x speed. There's no setting available for speed nor voice. Concept is nice. Execution is lazy as hell. I've written similar code. The voice part of this could be coded in 5 minutes max. Add some variety, accuracy. I don't want chipmunks reading me Pali. Until then I'll stick to what is available online read by real people.
