>For me, it was incomprehensible. I did catch one or two words but that's all. Of course i'm not english native speaker, but I handle most case where people doesn't talk with accents that are too exotic

I am a native speaker, and I managed to understand *maybe* one word in ten. It would not be an exaggeration to say that that is literally the worst example of text-to-speech I've ever heard. So bad, in fact, that I get the impression the software was mistakenly set to a language other than English and then given English text to read, making it an unfair example.
