zero at this pointCons
These used to be okay, as they were kind of interesting/enjoyable yet underpaid. However, this requester has since cut the pay TWICE for the same HIT (actually, some clips seem longer). They were 20 cents, then 15, now they're down to 10 cents. So now of course, they are simply awful. This was one of my faster ones, but on average, each one takes about five minutes. You decide for yourself if this is worth your time instead of doing laundry or watching TV: listen to 10 audio clips (each one 10 - 20 seconds long), start typing and hope your snippet pops up right away.Advice to Requester
Don't be mean even when you can get away with it. These were palatable at 20 cents because listening to audio books is fun, though it was already horribly underpaid. Since the pay rate has been cut in half, the number of audio files should be too.
