Does anyone have any experience having recordings transcribed via outsourcing? This usually works by uploading the file and having it transcribed somewhere where labor costs and consequently transcription costs are lower (e.g. India). If you have such experience can you recommend someone?

Thanks.

They are interviews with residents of a neighborhood in a big metropolis. Most of the interviewees (if not all) will be American with American accents.
