So, anyways... I have a serious question for the busy people who use audiobooks for reasons of convenience and/or lack of free time to sit down with a book... If you suddenly had more time and it didn't make a difference in your life either way, which method would you prefer the most? Old-school or audiobook?

I have yet to try the audiobook thing. I'm concerned that there is too much potential for stories that I love to become corny and ridiculous with someone reading every word aloud while changing character voices, playing out dramatic scenes, etc... (They do change character voices, right? Cuz I really don't know. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.])

I also wonder if audiobooks ever make a listener feel awkward during certain stories. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
