The more the merrier for me as well. Some one might have a different inflection or different perspective then I do, or bring a whole new and different flavor to the performance then I could. Also I think readers enjoy the options and the diversity of having multiple readers do the same story. Thinking of one story in particular " Lazarus Came Forth" by Oselle. I first listened to it and loved it! the reader was perfect the story was awesome. When I noticed that a second reader had posted the story as well I promptly downloaded and loved it just as much. It was the same story, but with a different personality. I noticed some things about the story that I hadn't in the first recording. Each individual had there own unique way of relating to the characters. And as for me as a reader it felt like two different sides of the same story. I still can't decide which version is my favorite. :)
I've always found it very hard to listen and enjoy a story once I've recorded it, I find myself cringing through the entire thing, so if some one ever wants to podfic one that I have already done, please feel free.
