Transcribe 40 Short Phrases - $1.50

Fair

Unrated

Pending

$9.64 / hour

00:09:20 / completion time

Pros

Listen to 39 recording and transcribe what you hear. You can listen to each file twice. Overall a simple task if you have good hearing, decent headphones and can type reasonably fast. It appears there may be different versions of this HIT as some workers report having to transcribe more or fewer recordings.

Cons

Lackluster pay. No way to make this go faster (39 audio files to listen to) unless you zoom through it and only listen to each audio once with little care as to whether you're transcribing things correctly. The agreement page is a waste of time don't bother clicking within the box. Audio is muffled by static and words are not easily discerned.

Pros

Cons

Have to give an "email id", which I used an obviously fake email address. Possible TOS violation, there.
120 phrases of generally low audio quality need to be transcribed.
Rejected for claiming I didn't complete the survey.
After conferring with the requester, I apparently missed a transcription or an accent rating. Double-check that you marked both questions before moving on, because the survey will happily let you complete the survey and submit only to be rejected. Better, yet, just return this poorly-designed, TOS-violating, underpaid HIT.

Pros

Transcribe 40 (jumbled, distorted, nonsense) Short Phrases (while loud static destroys your ears)
Pretty fun to try to figure out what the speakers are saying through all the static

Cons

Play button broke on one of the phrases
Fake 'Agree' button on the PDF, you need to scroll down to get to the real Agree button
No survey code, you use the username you came up with in the beginning when you made a new account
