They are called audiobooks and, for several years, all my alone driving (and not just that) is made listening to them!

True - and I do like them for long drives (actually, I also love Elizabeth Peters, and the first book I "read" by her was an audiobook on a relatively short drive). However, what I meant by the 3P0 comment was something a bit more interactive. :-)
I try to find lecture series & podcasts to listen to when I'm on really long trips. As long as it's something I'm interested in and I haven't heard it before, it keeps me awake in the middle of the afternoon better than fiction does - I don't know why...
