I mostly listen while driving. Of course, it really comes down to the individual. Some people have trouble keeping their primary focus on the road while listening to audiobooks. At work, I only listen to audiobooks while doing rote tasks such as testing my software. Depending on how much I need to focus, I might have nature sounds on (highest focus), music, all the way down to podcasts and audiobooks.
Agree that a bad narrator can ruin any book, a good narrator can make an ok book much better.
The vast majority of my audiobook listens are books I've already read as paper or ebooks. It really is a different experience, IMPO. I listen mostly to fiction and history. Can't say that I've listened to anyone read the Bible, but I have listened to Don't Know Much About the Bible and enjoyed it.
