I like the first two and use both regularly.
Audiobooks are torture because the human voice doesn't read at even hald the pace of the human eye so it. feels. like. being. drip. fed. Even when you speed it up to x2.
I usually listen to audiobooks when doing something else like riding my bike or waiting, where I don't have the conventration ability for actual reading which works quite well although it takes a bit longer than normal reading
That makes sense. I usually prefer music for those situations, but I can see the appeal of an audiobook. Might try it sometime.
