Sometimes, the normal pace of a book is fine for me - but that's usually on the fiction / fantasy side my collection. For business books, I'm in favor or throughput - I don't have to get *every* word to get what I need from a business book.

I think when you listen faster you tend to catch less detail and miss things out. Usually audio books are spoken by professional narrators and they know what's best. I'd stay away from speeding things up. I am not sure if faster is better. I think when you listen faster you tend to catch less detail and miss things out.
