Re: Audible.com books on tape
My quick thoughts on this topic:
1) I don't know if I could focus without having to physically hold the book and actively read. I could easily see getting on a subway and zoning out for 20 minutes then suddenly realizing I have no idea wtf is going on in the book. There's a strong association between listening to my ipod and relaxing.
2) There is some degree of a social coolness factor associated with having a physical book.
3) I would be a lot less inclined to listen to a couple minutes of the audiobook while I'm taking a crap than I would be to read the actual book.
