There was a site called hearablog.com (https://twitter.com/#!/hearablog) which narrated some of the more famous tech blogs. Jason discussed it on This Week in Startups: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTn5qNeHny4

I personally think that this is a neat idea but VoiceBunny isn't the ideal tool. You pay about $70 for 400 words which is about the length of a short-mid sized blog post. If you just cover 5 posts per day, you will need to invest about $10k per month in VoiceBunny. At this point, looking for your own voice actors is probably cheaper.

Hi! VoiceBunny co-founder here. Our marketplace is new and the median prices are coming down on a weekly basis as more talents compete for work. Also, you are free to set the prices you want to pay. For ideas like hearablog.com, we are also implementing a royalty-based system, where talents get paid as the recording makes money for our client.
