Every day I use iTunes to listen to ChinesePod podcasts, my textbook CDS, storybook CDS, etc. 

I've noticed how ANNOYING it is to scroll back 5s, 10s, etc. 

Anyone know a great MP3 app (for MAC) that allows very easy manipulation of song playback? Something perhaps designed for students wanting to practice a language?

Thanks!

you might wanna try VLC. although it probably does not follow MAC design philosophies, it can do what you ask and even more: slow down tracks without changing the pitch.

ChinesePod App Question

I had a question on the iPhone/iTouch App, but can't seem to post for some reason, so'll I'll hijack this thread. Also, I noted that the lesson exercises and tools menus are not loading.

Anyway, sometime shortly after the dashboard upgrade, lessons assigned by my counselor quit showing up on my iTouch. I can still download them in iTunes, but there are times when I like to use the content features of the App. Has anybody else had this problem?
