I've listened to a lot of audiobooks and I have a mixed feeling about them. On one hand they're great because you can do something else while listening to them. But that's a problem in and of itself. Since you're doing something else at the same time, your full attention is not focused on the book. There may be times when you miss important parts. But having said that, who has time to read these days?
Sometimes for really dense/cerebral stuff (especially stuff that needs supplemental charts/references) it can be tough/pointless, same with slower/less engaging fiction. WWI history book took a few rewinds, Had to re-read GoT 5 on the elliptical (read the other 4 no problem when I was epic commuting). Made it through The Selfish Gene like it was nothing though. I've read a huge pile of old sci-fi (including really dry shit like Clark and Azimov) while doing everything from my job, to driving, to mowing. Read about 75% of Mein Kampf on the lawn mower, read The Turner Diaries while VR space trucking...
