barbinbrad··on The most underused browser feature: reader mode
For web developers, one thing to keep in mind with text to speech is that you can use the aria-hidden attribute to prevent things (like menus or ads) from being read.

Lol. I read that comment as "I like that the verses are missing." But now that you point it out, it's tough to say.

The reason I left out the verse numbers is that I use the iPhone text-to-speech tool on the way to work to have the robot-lady read it to me without using too much data (company phone). And it's annoying to hear numbers every other sentence.
