      Yep. I like both. But if I want the gist of something fast or am not in an environment or situation I can sit and watch without disturbing or being disturbed by others. I want text. No fiddling with a progress bar to get back to where I was. Quick easy done. At home I’ll watch videos all day. But it will never be as efficient.

      Yep.

      I do plenty of audiobooks for longer form content, where I know I want all of it. But I absolutely have no interest in having 10 paragraphs turned into a 10 minute video.
