Amazon today (04/16/2020) announced a long-form speaking style for news and music content within third-party Alexa skills (i.e., voice apps). Starting this week in the U.S., developers can use the style, which is optimized for large amounts of textual information, to read aloud web pages, articles, podcasts, and storytelling portions of games.
