    This would be amazing for podcasts. Eliminate background music so that skip silence always works and things get to the point quicker.

      I wish someone would develop a tool that would allow me to remove the annoying foreground noise from podcasts ;-)

        There is a specialized player for that. Just run this command:

        cat podcast.ogg >> /dev/null

        Gets rid of all the uninteresting parts of any podcast!

        Since most voice audio is in the center of the stereo spectrum, inverting one channel’s phase by 180 degrees and mixing it back in should do it. Audacity ought to be able to take care of that. You might still get echos though.
