the issue is that for all creators of stuff, if only a small minority of your user base have an issue, and none of them are in your beta testing cycle, you rely on those who have the issue to demonstrate it even exists and that it is not, frankly, user operator error.

Regarding this bug or any other, I don't personally like having to do testing in order for a company to fix the problem unless I'm on their testing team. However, since we are a small minority, I guess part of me feels that whatever we can do to give Apple all the information they need may help in the end. I can't stand speech at lower speeds, but am willing to put up with it for a few hours to see if I can prove or disprove the assumption that slower speeds are not affected and higher speeds are. Because I've been in beta testing situations before, and still am in certain things, this isn't new to me. Still, it's annoying. -- Raul A.
