Attn:Waze Technical Staff (Cookie Monster voice.)
I also was a great fan of the Cookie Monster voice and I know that it was a campaign and discontinued...
Has anyone given any consideration to perhaps reaching out to Sesame Street or children's television workshop or whoever the entity is and perhaps working out some type of arrangement as far as some voice packets that can be downloaded and added to the app?
For example a user can pay a one-time fee to download the Cookie Monster voice or any other desired voice that would come in a voice package.
This way it's a win-win-win... Originators of Sesame Street get a piece of the royalty, Waze gets a piece of it and the customer gets the desired voice downloaded.
I would happily pay a reasonable fee for any of the voice packages if this idea is able to become a reality.
There's your free multimillion-dollar idea! I only asked 5% of the royalty! :-) haha just kidding :-)
If that is possible, could you put in other voices in addition to Cookie Monster, for example Grover, The Count (which I also think would be fantastic for young listeners in the car), Elmo, or anything like this?
I think this would be a fantastic income producer not only for Waze but again also from children's television workshop.
As a courier I will definitely tell you, especially on Long rides Cookie Monster kept the road enjoyable and I just think it would be a great idea and lots of people would love to have the voice back.
If this could be passed on to the administrative and negotiations people would really be awesome! Please keep me in the loop on this.

Actually your comment is not quite correct because unfortunately you pulled the Cookie Monster voice in July when your initial post said that he was... "Here to stay."
That being said this is a post that I posted after you remove the voice. Perhaps it can be brought back if you read the entire words are types and hopefully this could be done.
