Didn't notice that, but those are casettes... who uses casettes?

Don't ask me. I don't like audiobooks -- I like to read with my eyes. [Wink]

Overrated, this way I can work out at the gym while listening, it is easier than reading while working out because the book always shakes... yeah kind of annoying.

I really like audio books, but I hate abridged ones.

I do, when they're $2.50 for unabridged! I bought the two short story collections. I have the others already, except the Alvin books, which I am staunchly refusing to listen to until some UNabridged versions are produced. [Razz]

Totally. I take my audiobooks everywhere - road trips, errand runs, the gym, into my studio when I work. I am SELDOM not listening to an audio book. By the way, for those who don't know, you can get a membership at audible.com for $15/month and get one free book per month, plus deep discounts on purchases. It's great if you like audio! They have lots of Card books, too.
