A website to listen to pronunciations

I just found this website with pronunciations of words in Spanish (and other languages). When you type a word in the search field, there are some words that have several different people from several different places saying the word. Thus, you can listen to different accents. I liked typing in "llamar" and listening to the differences between the Argentinians, the Spanish, and the Peruvian pronunciations. COOL!!

Check it out: http://www.forvo.com/languages/es

Yes, there is an English section as well. I didn't look at it, though, so I'm not sure if they have the same variety as they do with the Spanish speakers.
