Isn't a large part of your preference going to be whomever is reading the text?
For example, I've tried to listen to audiobooks several times and for the most part I don't like it because the narrator reads too slowly. I can read much faster than I can listen to a book and also reread portions if wanted.
Another problem for me is sometimes the reader's voice and/or cadence is irritating. There is a tendency to introduce a lot of melodrama into the reading. While I don't like robotic intoning of the text a lot of times the narrator will go overboard and begin acting.
One of the few audiobooks I've enjoyed was John Cleese reading C.S. Lewis's the Screwtape Letters. I really liked that one.
