It's amazing that part of their advertising is that they are offering the ability to hire people for transcription of text to audio for even less than competing services. Why... would anyone work for them when they could work for other services that pay 10x more?

Not sure you're referring to Poise here? We don't offer transcription. We create podcasts from any content.

Yeah, I forgot the proper word for reverse-transcription. Regardless, my actual point which you ignored was:

    Voices.com:   300 words - From $250

    Bunny Studio: 500 words - From $151

    Poise:        500 words - From  $11
Why would any reader work with you, when they are going to be paid at least 10x less than the competition?
