@amalia12 Also it's classist. You know my aunt who's being occasionally mentioned by me. Left Hauptschule after Klasse 9 as many working-class girls did in her day to either work or get married. She never learnt to *read* as in read fictional works. She thought that wasn't for Bergmannstöchter, books are for those with their noses in the air. Audio books grant her access to a whole new world which she is not afraid to get into and appeciate because listening never was labelled an academic thing.
