If someone wants to get distracted, he/she can go to watch series and lose their time, but it he/she wants to have a present moment, must catch a book.

That's all I wanted to say
The same story in pBook, eBook, and audiobook are all the same book. Doesn't matter which way you digest it. You get the same information. Words are words. You're dislike for audiobooks is just wrong. What do you think of people who think eBooks are not real books? Are you happy with that?
