Default What CD-Rom or online talking dictionary offers human voice pronunciation?

Hi Teachers,

What CD-Rom or online talking dictionary sounds more close to human voice? I mean not sound too robotic. I'm thinking to get the Longman Advanced American English Dictionary CD-Rom. Do u know if this is any good?

Thanks

As far as I can recall, the Longman does use human voice- I certainly had a version that did.
