What irks me about the Fire phone is that the native Audible player is so much worse than the Android Audible app. I love the granularity of the speed function on the Android app; it both lets me bump up the speed gradually and home in on the perfect speed. Any book can take being speeded up by 5% to 10%, but 20% can be too much; however the slower speeds aren't an option. Similarly, the jump from 20% to 40% can be too much where 30% would be sustainable. And I always want to listen at the fastest speed consonant with enjoyment.
