I used to have zero appreciation for them, then, last summer, I borrowed one from the library just to try it again, with a genre I had never read before. Luckily, it was the best narrator (IMHO) I've ever heard, and I was totally hooked on both the genre and the format.

Now, I always listen to audiobooks when I drive, go running, and walk my dog, but there are genres I prefer to read, and genres I prefer to listen to: lighter literature works best in audiobok format for me, because I don't need to pay as much attention.

Now, had that first book been narrated by a boring voice, or had the book been bad, I may not have given them another chance, so it was pure luck that I picked up such a great one.
