On a related note, over at goodreads, there are members of a monthly "book" club. I've noticed a frightening number of participants don't actually read books ... they listen to them.

Yes, it's an alternative and, no, it's not the same thing as reading.

I suppose one could argue they are equally "consuming" books (as in, getting through the words) but surely books are meant to be read just as plays are generally meant to be experienced in performance.
