I use them both, but I like the free one the best: Here are a couple applications you can get to control the speed of your MP3s. The good thing about Express Scribe (or another package) is that you can take a drill, such as one at 100 wpm, and practice it at 45 wpm or 200 wpm, if you want to. At this point, I'm not concerned about how fast the dictation is it just gives me good practice at writing "real" conversation instead of all the canned ones that sound so stiff sometimes.

Whatever you use, you'll need to practice from audio at some point, because that's how we're going to be doing our jobs as reporters some day.
