When I first got hooked to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, the only place I could get their debut album, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, was through the band's Web site. I listened to the two tracks a
- Nine Inch Nails
- For years I wanted to make music that sounded like something between Love and Rockets and Ministry. In 1989, Trent Reznor beat me to it with this genre-defining album, and it smacked me upside the hea

iPod "Speed Reading"
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Using your iPod or iPhone to listen to audiobooks is a cool way to catch up on those books youve really been meaning to get to. If you find, however, that you still dont have enough time to get through your audiobooks, you can speed them up.
iPod
- Choose Settings > Audiobooks
- Select Faster
iPhone
- Choose Settings > iPod > Audiobook Speed
- Tap Faster
Increasing the playback speed of audiobooks lets you listen to more content in a smaller amount of time, and it doesnt alter the audio quality, so your books wont sound like they are being read by whacked out chipmunks.
Also, if you find that that you cant keep up with an audiobook read at normal speed, you can choose Slower instead. This is handy when you are listening to an audiobook where the reader is talking too fast, or has an accent thats difficult for you to understand.
