Guess I'll go with #2. My job involves a lot of driving. The audiobooks are a great way to survive in a city with only one decent radio station. And I'm slowly getting to prefer light fiction in audio form. Stephen King, James Patterson, John Grisham. It frees up my limited reading time for non-fiction and it frees up bookshelf space.

Prefer Book Reading Over AudioBooks
I suppose this wouldn't apply so much to nonfiction audiobooks, but I prefer to conjure up in my mind the characters' voices rather than have them established by a reader.

Never listened to audio books and have no desire to.

I have never listened to an audio book and I imagine I would have a hard time keeping the concentration up.

SAVE FERRIS Both.
Audiobooks when I'm driving.
Books when I'm at home.
I drive for a living, so I get through a lot of audiobooks.

I used to read a lot of books, but since I had to start using reading glasses it's more audio books. But I hate audio acting (for a lack of a better word) with several people and music in the background etc.
It also depends greatly on the narrator. A good narrator can make an average book good, a poor narrator can make a good book awful.

Prefer reading over audiobooks. I pretty much always space out listening to an audiobook. I listened to all of Blood Meridian, and probably couldn't give you a basic plot summary.
