I thought you were going to say that the human translator would use the service , add his own surcharge of $30 and still be cheaper than the competition :)

seriously this will sell like crazy to public offices and services that keep transcripts of conversations, courts of law etc.

I'm sure that will happen. Automating a first pass and saving the humans for the second, smarter pass will be a great combination. Higher quality, lower cost.

But that's only if you care about human-readable quality. I'm especially interested in the applications where we don't.
