Warner experimented with this a bit in the early days of VHS and Beta. They released a version of Superman that was time compressed, and it was a bloody mess. Most PAL videos and DVDs are also time compressed by 4%, because film is 24 fps and PAL video is 25fps, so they just ramp up the telecine to avoid annoying flicker problems.
