The new IVONA voices are no longer SAPI 5 compatible and are now significantly degraded.
RC SAPI 5 Dictionary no longer works perfectly with the new IVONA voices: All SAPI 5 pronunciation tags like, <Pron sym="r iy d 1"/>, are skipped.
You can no longer use a PLS (Pronunciation Lexicon Specification) dictionary with these new voices.
Do not purchase RC SAPI 5 Dictionary to use exclusively with these new IVONA voices.
RC SAPI 5 Dictionary still works perfectly with the older IVONA SAPI 5 compatible voices and all other SAPI 5 compatible voices.
UPDATE: See NextUp IVONA Downgrade Offer
