The idea is to get some articles (for my studies) onto MP3 so that I can listen to them on the bus (reading on a bus makes me feel travel sick).<BR>

Yes.

I did that a long time ago using &quot;sox&quot; to do some retiming tricks
also.

Is this to get your computer to read a story?

Cheers,
Martin
