Adjust playback speed of songs and not just podcasts

Add support for controlling playback speed for music

Hey there! 👋 I implemented this setting some time ago and after an internal discussion, we decided against enabling the feature for songs.

Hi! What was the reason behind not implementing this for songs? I'm a musician and often slow down songs to learn them and the only place I've been able to do that is on Youtube...

It was a group decision, but as a musician myself too, I can see it as a real use case. You can manually change the playback rate by opening the DevTools Console with Control+Shift+I and pasting this snippet: MusicKit.getInstance().playbackRate = 0.5 I hope this helps!

that does help, thank you!

Of course. I will try to ask around again in hopes of enabling this for songs.

Have a nice day!
