I listen to a lot of audiobooks at work, and it is definitely a different experience from reading a physical book, but there is a great deal of overlap. There’s also a limitation to the books that can be put in audio format… not sure how House of Leaves would work in audio with all the footnotes. The best audiobook I’ve ever listened to is Andy Serkis’ Lord of the Rings that came out recently. Before that the best a reader could do is make me not think about them, but this one rose to the level of a great performance.
