Microsoft finally catching up; Since Windows 95 = Amiga 85 (alternatively, Macintosh 86), therefore Windows XP (2002) = AmigaOS 3.1 (1992) Now Windows Vista = AmigaOS 4.0 (2006)
90 minutes ? That takes an hour to listen if you're slow, 30 minutes if you're in a hurry. ~40 minutes about optimum. Ofcourse if it was a video instead and it was closes captioned/subtitled (english or native), one could easily watch it in under 20 minutes.
All this ofcourse depends somewhat on the quality of your time stretching soft/hardware.
4x ? I watched the reruns of Party of Five at speeds between 5x and 9x , with a relatively high-end 2 and a half year old S-VHS VCR (JVC HR-S8600), with a whopping 2 megabytes of memory for TBC.
Being from Finland , it helps helps that 95% of programs not made in Finland are subtitled in Finnish. (Pokemon is dubbed). Programs with more action , such as Xena, I tend to watch at 2x or 3x speed and the dubbed programs at 1.5x speed.
Speed options are somewhat limited, available speeds are 1/3x, 1/2x , 1x , 1.5x , 2-3-5-7-9x ; all with audio. For those wondering, there's no jerkiness, the playback is smooth (>10 year Philips CM 8833 monitor). Analog rules. Though I suppose if one compressed the video into MPEG-2 with all frames keyframes, then there'd be a chance of getting smooth playback at 5x speed, without having to decode the stream at 125 fps. Though my Nokia CRT can reach 150 Hz at 640x480.
At the 4 first speeds the audio speed is in sync with the video, with small corrections in pitch.
At 2-3-5-7-9x speeds the VCR drops out silent bits and at higher speeds quite a bit of speech as well, so the audio is in sync with video only every now and then.
If the program happens to be subtitled in English, me being Finnish, I can only watch as fast as 3x if I want to understand.
With Friends, I tend not to trust the translators skills and watch the show at 1.5x or 2x speed.

Networker, MyIE2 , Scope and a dozen other of the browsers listed at www.geocities.com/tabbedbrowsers
have an undo button , in my case located between the forward and stop button, offering a dropdown list of the recently closed windows.
The two first remember what URLs you had open if the browser/OS crashes and asks whether to re-open them when next launched. Unless ofcourse you have a set of URLs set to open in tabs upon startup.
The solution is to allow popups, but not to display them to the screen.
That's exactly how anti-leech checks whether you are using a pop-up killer/disabler.
Except ofcourse the invisible popup is visible in Opera for a couple seconds before it automatically closes.
So either one allows popups from anti-leech or writes a filter for proxomitron to search for
anti-leech.com/antitheft.php?id=*\1
and (after supposedly passing 4 anti-leech tests) replace with
What I NEED is a <$500 device that can save 4 different (porn-)channels at the same time for one day straight, while playbacking one saved stream at a freely choosable speed without missing frames, eg. @ 75 fps/w 150Hz refresh rate on the display device.
