I have personally accustomed myself to watching videos on VLC media player (or any other player for that matter), but not at regular speed. Instead, I like to use 1.5X speed. This allows me to get through the video in less time, yet at the same time full coherence and understanding of the content. Using anything above this is not possible (try listening to Brian Dennis or McGahan at 2.0X speed!).
I think it would be a really cool feature to add if the videos that are accessible through AAP page (non downloads, straight from the web ui) have the ability to be sped up a bit.
I wouldn't call this company a "competitor", but CBT Nuggets has a similar feature available on their content delivery mechanism.
Any thoughts on this?
