Message: [QUOTE="ct9983, post: 549969, member: 13424"] I don't have a problem with audio books in general. I think they're a great way for people to enjoy stories and subjects while doing other things like work and chores. The issue with me is when people listen to audio books and claim they "Read" a book. It's a totally different sense. as far as I know, your ability to absorb information visually vs auditory is even processed differently. meaning your physical experience of it and what information you absorb (and how) is different between the two mediums. it would be like me looking at lyric and music sheets for an album and saying I listened to it. or reading a script and saying I saw a movie. or one that really annoys me is when people watch a let's play and say they played the game. all BS. I'm sorry. you listen to audio books. you do not read them. it may seem like semantics, but I don't care. I'll die on this hill. But anyway, I don't have an issue with audio books themselves. they're nice. [/QUOTE]
