I want to play videos in iTunes faster (1x, 2x, double speed, etc.) or maybe slower. How do I do that?

Right click on the file in iTunes and choose "Show in Finder." Then right click the file and open in Quicktime Player. In Quicktime Player you can choose the playback speed by using the A/V Controls (Command + K or Window>A/V Controls). From there, you can select the playback speed:

A/V Controls - QT Player

Alternatively, you could use VLC or another music player.

And yes, it's annoying that you can trivially do this on an iPod/iPhone but not in iTunes. – geekosaur Apr 11 '12 at 0:22
