Saw on social media from an audiobook performer that some of them get testy when they find out that listeners adjust the reading rate. The reason being that they are performing the book that way for a purpose and you will miss some of their intonation and inflection if the audio is sped up.
Personally, I find most performers talk way too slow and I almost always have to turn it up more than x1. I care more about the story than the way it's being performed. Anyone else? Am I missing out?
I personally like just listening at 1X and I've tried speeding it up before but to me it just doesn't sound natural and takes away from the experience
I understand why audiobook performers might tune in when listeners create interference. After all, they put a lot of work into conveying the emotions and intonation of the text
