Pros
- "You will be compensated $0.01 for completing this task, regardless of whether you pass it or fail. The main experiment will take about 40 minutes to complete. There are a total of 60 short sentences, and for each correct word you type you will receive a payment of $ 0.03. So, your maximum payment for this HIT will be around $7.00 , plus the $0.01 for the screening task."Cons
- Most of these were extremely hard to decipher. It's only really worth it if you can get a decent bonus which doesn't seem realistic.- Even though there is a progress bar showing how many phrases out of 60 you've done and whether you got them right or not, it does not tell you the total amount correct at the end. You're left wondering what the full bonus amount is going to be.

Naturalness rating of musical sounds - $0.01 +4.17 bonus Confirmed!
Fair
Unrated
Approved
$12.74 / hour
00:19:41 / completion time
Pros
This is an extremely straightforward and easy task. You simply rate how 'natural' a 7-10 second piece of music sounds to you (0-10 scale). There are about 80-100 total trials.Besides main task, short questions about your musical abilities (~2-5 min) - and of course demographics.
Approved and bonus paid same day.
Cons
It is long, and there is no getting around it. Every trial is timed before you can make your rating.There is basically a short qual where you must play short tones and rate them before you can move forward (i.e. which is the softest tone).
There may be no audio in the initial testing portion. Disregard that and move on, it's a glitch. If you hear nothing, just click next and you can move forward with the tone testing and task itself.

Underpaid

Approved
$22.53 / hour
00:28:25 / completion time
Pros
First you have to pass the screening - there is a practice run which I thought was very helpful - main task, work through 90 short spoken sentences - very hard to hear - for every correct word you type you earn 0.03 bonus up to around $7.00 - could be done faster01.04.22-received a bonus of $10.66 - generous pay with the bonus
Cons
I had to do some amendments to my audio settings to enable me to hear the calibration part which worked in the end - a couple of these I could not hear a thing at all - bonus was not mentioned at the end so I have no idea how much to expect.
