What's the Difference between Traditional Books vs. Audiobooks?
What do you think is better, reading the story or hearing a story? Luckily, now you can get each book in an audio format as well. But the question is, which method is best to consume a book?
Audiobooks
You can keep audiobooks on your Smartphone so you can listen to them wherever you are. You don't have to hold books in hand for reading. It means you can listen to them even when you perform other tasks. Audiobooks allow you to do multitask. So, you'll not have to just read books at one time.
Traditional Books
They make you feel that you're the owner of these books. You can set a classic library. You can lend a physical book to friends. When you have physical books in hand, you can avoid distractions.
So, after looking at the differences, we can say that audiobooks are better because they don't require much space like traditional books. Moreover, in most cases, physical books are expensive.
