I think it's sad that lying in a title is now accepted marketing practice.
There are 70,000 audiobooks in the catalog, and people can listen to them. If audio is generated on-demand in the background, it does not make them "not-audiobooks", and it does not make my post a lie. "If it looks like a duck..."
It's just a technical implementation detail. And I'm not hiding it; I'm describing it in the post
You didn't.
That's a lie.
Most people don't like to be lied to.
And I don't see any lie there.
I explained what I did in detail. I'm open in the comment section and explained my reasoning regarding the pricing. I've made practically no money off of this project so far.
There is an option to cache, but there is also an option to crowd-source, which makes the price for the first person smaller.
Moreover, if you try to buy an 'hour plan' for $15 and listen to any PG book, you will not be billed for the converted chunk, so the caching works as you'd expect.
Flagging feels so exteremely unfair.
It's just a technical implementation detail. And I'm not hiding it; I'm describing it in the post. I cannot describe the implementation detail in the short title.
It's just that you decided to believe that it's a lie, saying it very confidently, and taking down the post that was received generally very positively.
2. It's not a subscription, it's one-time purchase of hours.
I just wrote a catchy title (which can be a bit misleading, but not dramatically, as all the audiobooks I'm mentioning are really accessible to people; I developed all the infrastructure needed for that), and tried to clarify everything in the post itself.
How about "just-in-time generation" of 70k audiobooks
