Some people (not me) feel that people will multitask when listening to an audiobook. I've seem some complain they couldn't have possibly absorbed everything. Others say "it's not fair" because reading (versus listening) means you *can't* multitask, so why should those who listen to audiobooks get credit for doing two things at once.
For me, it can actually go both ways. When I first started listening to audiobooks, I mostly listened to books I'd already read. I'd get distracted, and having already read the books allowed me to jump back in without necessarily having to back track too much. I was amazed, however, at how much sounded new to me - details I obviously skimmed when I was reading.
