Hi Michael, I am enjoying the voice generating and download features of your extension but noticed it now only supports Google API. Would you consider adding Microsoft Azure and Amazon Polly API support? This could greatly enhance voice options and broaden the appeal of your plugin.

Just tried it out and I'm blown away! Voices sounds so real, it's like having someone read stuff to you. Super easy to set up and you can adjust the speed and pitch to make it just right for you

Was good... but now it has stopped working. API key apparently is now invalid and no way to fix it. No listed solutions online.

Wavenet is hands-down the best TTS reader. The selection of voices is unparalleled and sound very lifelike. Thank you for the hard work and dedication in making this extension available for everyone; more people should know about this extension! My mother is visually impaired but with this she's able to have the ability to read emails, webpages, books, and so much more. I've been using it for almost 3 years and absolutely love it. The new interface is fantastic! The developer should be commended for creating such an amazing product that is free for most voices and allow people who are visually impaired the ability to 'read' again.

This extension is a game changer for me in learning development. I can make changes so much quicker without having to use my own voice. Can I have support on one aspect? The main studio male voice is gone. Seems like it was replaced by accident by a new male voice. Studio M and Studio Q are the same now. Missing Studio M.
