I'm not interested in speed reading, but I like to speed listen. I love the various audiobook apps that let you bump up the speed of the narration without going all chipmunky. I'm less likely to use it while listening to fiction, which is as much performance as it is a book delivery system, but it's a godsend for non-fiction, especially when the length surpasses twenty hours. A speed of 1.25X or more is an appreciable savings in absolute time required to hear a book and also helps me maintain my interest in something that can take on the aspect of a marathon.
