Hello Kevin, Infovox iVox is a third-party suite of voices for the Mac. Those of us who use the Mac in a language other than English need these voices since Apple only provides English language voices.
A language pack costs €99 which is very good value for me as a French language user as I get 5 voices for that price. Some languages only get 1 voice which makes the cost a bit steep. However, as far as I know, Infovox iVox are the only third-party voices that work with Snow Leopard. I tried a Cepstral voice with SL but it didn't work.
