U2's Bono on audiobooks in this week's New York Times Book Review:
"I was diagnosed with glaucoma and have been wearing colored specs to mitigate the malady and add rock star affectation. It means I need a lens, so iPad and Kindle work for me when reading, but not so well outdoors, where I love audiobooks. I can tell this format is developing as an art form. A podcast like Dave Chappelle’s “Midnight Miracle” is a great example of how text, conversation, music and atmospherics collide and collage perfectly."
