I'm considering transcription but analyze: is transcription worth the time? Map transcription pay: per-audio-hour rate, actual hours to transcribe. Calculate: if transcription pays $15 per audio hour but takes 4 hours to transcribe 1 hour, what's actual hourly rate? Show me the transcription math: actual hourly wage after accounting for work time. Give me the transcription reality: pays this per hour, is it worth it? Include: what transcription actually pays per hour of work, whether it's worth the effort, and what alternatives pay better.
