[DECtalk] Samsung bought Innoetics. You can guess what happenednext

The Innoetics site says they discontinued all available services. Therefore,
I don't think it would be possible to record a voice for VoiceCraft in the
future.

Hello,

Will this also effect Voice Crafts for making my own voice?
Someone told me that I can request a SAPI version of the voice I
create on that platform, but if this will be going away eventually,
I'm not sure I'll be able to do this still.

Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to any assistance
you are willing to provide.

Thanks,

Brandon
