I learned about Spreeder several years ago, but found that, whether its print or online material, you can achieve a similar result just by “scanning” words.

As someone who reads really, really slow, (lol) I am interested. Will check it out to see if I can get the internal editor out of the story and actually enjoy it this way.

As someone who reads really, really fast, I am dubious about this method, though I think the fundamental “getting away from phonics” principle is a sound one—the only people I know who read as quickly as I do are people who, like me, taught themselves to read rather than learning it via the “sounding-out” method taught in schools.

I’d be interested to read someone’s trip report from using Spreeder.
