That article has a clickbait title but it also has a couple useful nuggets of info.

I took that article apart and put it back together to make the point that when an audiobook is treated as an original production, and not just a recitation of a novel, the audiobook can outsell the print edition.

One of the authors mentioned in that article writes his novels with a certain narrator in mind. He writes for that narrator's voice and style, and that trick sells a lot of audiobooks.
