[quote=Anonymous]Some people actually absorb more through listening than they do from reading. I tend to speed read sometimes and my mind can wander even with an actual book (versus an audiobook). Sure, I'm studying a text more when it's on paper and I'm making notes and re-reading passages, but I'm also not taking English Lit in college anymore. Mostly I read or listen to books for the enjoyment of it. I get to go through more books by having an audio book and a regular book going at any given point in time, so that I can either be listening while doing something that wouldn't allow me to read or reading when I have the time. Mostly I'm doing it for entertainment, not "serious reading." You're entitled to your opinion, but you sound like a snob and I don't think anyone cares whether or not you think they've "read" a book from your list of classics or not. [/quote]
