It surprised me but one thing Edge is really good at is ebook support with a read-aloud feature. The text rendering is good, better than Calibre, and the cursor tracking following the voice is very satisfying. Some of the British voices are close to perfect. If you want to listen at 2x then it's often better than a human because at speed, there is no value in dramatic intonation, instead impeccably consistent pronunciation and pace are what helps intake which would otherwise be grating at standard speed. What is really nice is that when you start feel "beaten up" by a high pace reading, you can switch voices and brighten up the experience. I find switching back and forth between male and female voices helps avoid ear fatigue and keep up the pace. I immediately become more receptive to the content when a new voice begins.
