"Official SAPI5 compatible"
Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2007.208
Pros
Finally a straight forward product which declares that it supports SAPI4 and 5. Other products such as Advanced text to speech and Coolspeech only supports SAPI4. I was absolutely and utterly disgusted with other products for they can't even support Microsoft Sam voice, a SAPI5 voice.
Stop and start where you want from cursor. Some other nonsensical products dosen't let you start from any part of a text.
Cons
No pronunciation tuning
The stop and play function can be improved, if you un-pause the player and it dosen't re-read the previous word
The converted MP3 file is abit rustled in quality, not as clear as you directly have it read out.

"I like the use of SAPI5 voices."
Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2007.208
Pros
SAPI5
Cons
Why it's not a screen reader?

"error/(s?) in application"
Version: Speak Aloud 2.0.2005.608
Pros
Looks ok.
Cons
Creates some sort of OLE-error, when uses AT&T-Chrystal-voice.
Thus it is of no benefit to me, as long as this application has program-errors.
