Ditto for me. when people speak, they tend to speak slow add a lot of unnecessary/repetitive information especially lectures. On the learner side, I tend to be much more focussed when watching at 2x speed, otherwise, i get distracted and think of something else during those slow paces. That was a big problem for me in classroom lectures, moments of important information gets overshadowed by low density information. WOnder how well I would have performed in college if it were through a video lecture!
