I love audiobooks. They're easy to fit into found time, mostly as bed time reading, I just set it going and fall asleep. It's a win-win, if I'm constantly re-reading the same chapter it's because I'm getting lots of sleep. If I can't sleep, at least I'm getting through the book.

Reading a physical/e book means I'm awake with energy and willingness to do something, sure I could read, but I could be doing something else. I read a lot more as a kid, but I also had fewer responsibilities. Also less access to motorcycles, games consoles, bars etc.
