About the download, TextParrot is a reasonably light program that will not require as much storage space than the average program in the section Audio & Video.

TextParrot allows you to listen to your documents with naturally sounding voices in a language of choice. Or use it to create your own personal podcasts or your own audio books by exporting to iPod-ready iTunes tracks.

Or just use it to speak selected text in a handy reader window with play, fast forward and rewind functionality. It even allows you to listen to text by just pointing your cursor at the text as you sit back and relax while text parrot reads the text under the cursor.
