Nobody claimed MP3 player is an ereader. We just corrected you in assuming that people only "read" audiobooks through tablets and phones. Aside from them even some ereaders have the ability to play audiobooks.
I'm gonna repeat myself again because I don't think you get it. Audiobooks are books. They have the SAME content. Same words, same sentences. So in that sense when you read a book and "read" an audiobook you absorbed the same content in different manner. Same thing with ebook and paper book. Same content, different medium and way of reading it.
