Glad you like it! Have you had a chance to try it out yet?
Currently I'm using Google's Speech API. Based on my tests, they have the best transcription results by far.
I experimented with a few others (IBM, for one) and found that while the coding was easier (because they allow a wider variety of audio file formats), the results weren't as accurate. Google, on the other hand, is fairly picky about what types of files can be processed - this is also probably what makes them more accurate. So in the background, there's a fair bit of audio transcoding that goes on before transcription.

What do you mean by error rate?
