All web browsers support a core group of media types: pictures, text, forms, buttons... etc. Our plug-in extends the capabilities of Netscape Navigator (or other Netscape plug-in compatible program) so that it can PLAY a new media type.....speech!
In the past multimedia developers (including www page authors) have avoided using speech -- one of the most effective ways of communication -- because it took up to much space. Not anymore! Using our net-friendly compression technology content providers can get 53:1 compression. An 8kHz 16-bit AIFF file that's 21.3 seconds in length would normally be: 332.8k, however it's only 6.3k after being compressed with VoxwareΓÇÖs metavoice technology.
BTW: this plug-in is free.
