I've been a fairly heavy user of Audible until this spring when I started to go back to regular, physical books. If you're reading books with lot's of graphs or pictures in them, the Audible experience is kind of subpar. Also, the experience of "browsing" audiobooks is kind of clunky and there's effectively no way to search the book.
I will say that the audio version of The Economist is pretty great. If an article has pictures or graphs in them, I can just open the article from the app and listen to it simultaneously. I hope more magazines/newspapers would add similar functionality to their offering.
