Thank you very much. I am very glad to see this as #1 here.

There is a typo on Voicepaper's description in iTunes. It reads "Voicepaper is a test to speech voice reader..." instead of "Voicepaper is a text to speech voice reader".

Yep, no freebee's here. Just a good old book.
I didn't know how to put this into words. I think you got it. The site is so squeeky, I don't want to have the same anywhere near my brain.

Re:Netflix begins audio description for visually impaired on Sunday April 19, 2015 @01:46PM (#9404003)
This is very cool. I recently helped a couple of visually impaired people pick a movie through a stack of DVDs they had at home, using the http://www.bemyeyes.org app.

I didn't know how they watched the movies, so they explain me that some come with some sort of aid that describes de scenes. Some kind of story telling, along the audio. I was fascinated.

However, they complain that there is not a lot of content that has this aid. I'm glad Netflix is bringing their content to this audience.

I just deleted mine from your comment. Thank you.
Can't think of anyone I know personally. Glad the bug is under control.

The simplicity of this answer speaks very loud. Kudos to YC. All others should listen closely, and try to emulate it.

Hey laurabw,

Just tried to look for a rate from '90210' to 'Berlin', but couldn't get further than this: http://cl.ly/image/1z3k0u3s0h1Y

I remember reading recently about several similar apps tackling the same problem. shiphawk comes to mind.

Good luck.

The only positive aspect of this, and make no mistake - this does not excuse their fishy behaviour - is that Yahoo has lead the way in defending its user's privacy against the NSA.
