Abstract

So Microsoft and MIT teamed up to make the Open Audiobook Collection, using text-to-speech tech to turn 5,000 books into free, synthetically narrated audiobooks, now available on Spotify. The software fueling the project was also released at no charge. Project Gutenberg is the oldest digital library, started in 1971 to make e-books more accessible. [Extracted from the article]
