I'm not surprised audio books are doing well. Overdrive is very popular, and I have wondered if the aging Boomers and their waning eyesight might be leading them toward audio books. Also audio is a unique way to experience a book, particularly with an awesome reader. The Potter books in particular are very good, and Stephen King had a great reader for his books. A few years ago I listened to one of my favorite books, The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien, and the book seemed to come alive to me in a new way even though I have read the print version several times.
