Can you hear that?

Once the plug-in is installed, then it’s an absolute breeze to use, but getting it initially set up to an absolute bloomin’ nightmare.

[How to obtain AWS Access Key and Secret Key?]

Guys, I’ve no flippin idea how I managed to get my AWS access key, that then led to the AWS secret key: because your detailed instructions, don’t actually match the very messy and confusing AWS dashboard.
(It’s all geared up to service mega companies.)
Poking and plodding I eventually got it, but I’ve still no idea how.

[the Review.]
Anyone who wants to enable TXT 2 SPEECH on their WordPress web-site: then this really is the absolute bees-knees to use, and Yes! – It’s gonna’ cost you ($4 dollars per 1 million characters.) But not for the first year, because for the first year after you’ve got your Amazon AWS account — it’s technically free!
(Subject to fair use, 5 million characters a month.)

Plus: you also get some off-line storage for your MP3 files, and some other stuff that frankly I’m at a loss to explain.
(Corporate stuff again.)

The voices available really are something else! – IVONA voices, .. wonderfully natural sounding, but what I find as amazing; is that they aren’t even the expensive offerings, offerings that do in fact cost a lot more.

This plug-in really is neat: I’ve got HTML5 Audio players on every Page and every Blog offering: all done automatically — and you can switch them (off) at any time.

I’m not live, but working on a local server to write and test out a new theme: and the thing even works in this insecure environment.

I simply cannot recommend this plug-in enough, but I simply cannot recommend the process of trawling through the Amazon S3 servers.

Hope it helps, .. Jessica.
