Nobody's arguing they are the same. No more than pbook and ebook are. Of course they carry different experience (as if I didnt argue that point too much already).
But Patrick here, just few posts back equated audiobooks with movies, and now he's arguing that hearing is not a sense, but touch is.
I'm just waiting for the next pearl of wisdom.
