Most people who don't like audiobooks don't like them because they don't know how to listen. It takes time to learn to listen. That said, some people PREFER their image of the characters in their own mind than the image produced by the actor on a modern audiobook. I'm a person who can't listen to classical music unless I'm still, so I get it.
As others have mentioned, try some radio broadcasts. You can get many of them through Itunes for free. I particularly like detective and suspense, but they have them in most genres. Don't beat yourself up (or feel like I am beating you up) if you still don't care for audiobooks. I was forced into audiobooks due to loss of vision. I had plenty of practice with them for 8 years before I got a Nook and they are now old friends. I can read with a Nook/kindle, but only so long partly due to focus issues.
