They haven't even contributed to the Eloquence code.

They don't care about the end-user, they don't care about easy access.  All they consist of, are people who want to say they've written this valuable program, when they of course didn't.  Examples include dragon which was written by L&h, eloquence of course, by speech works, and loquendo tts for that matter.  All they're doing, is taking ownership of a product and saying who can or cannot use it.  Most, if not all of their voices, they didn't make.  For example Tom and Jill, by speechworks.  I will say this one last time.  Nuances main goal, is to show off their grand text to speech, and just hold it in front of your face because they know you can't get it.  I mean, look what they've done to eloquence.  Just thought I may throw my 2 cents in.
