I did not know that. 
They prefer TTS to UNABRIDGED (forgot to emphasize that) audio books? Do you, by any chance, know why it is so? |
I think it has a lot to do with TTS being "neutral," while narrated audiobooks have a good bit of the narrator in them. It's also common for many visually impaired individuals to listen at 2x speed - this might also play a role.
(Yeah, I would have never guessed this if I hadn't been told, though. I'm a fan of audiobooks, but not TTS at all.).
