This is not the first app which has done this. Reading faster is a skill which just can not be taught using a software. I can read about 1000 words per minute but then I wouldn't know what I just read or what was there in between the lines. Reading comprehension, as @GingerBread pointed out, goes to hell.
If reading longform is a duty, use these software; if it's a choice, you wouldn't even want to go this way after trying it once.

Well put. I'd rather just not read if I wasn't enjoying it.
