I highly advise that you as an individual try using the TTS Tool, it's voices sound's beyond real, if you were to blindly give me audio samples of both real narration and this TTS Tools neration, I would not be able to tell you the difference, this tool is completely free to use, has several vocal option so if you get tired of one of the voices, you can quickly get a different one, and if you want to share the audio with your friends or family, it's as simple as downloading and sending the au...
