I would say recorded annoucements in English are kind of rare, but going to areas of less comon languages I hear them fairly often. JAL always has a some recorded Russian annoucements on the Moscow route. I often hear BA or Lufthansa run a recorded message in Danish/Swedish/Norwegian when heading to Denmark/Sweden/Norway.
