> To be sincere, I have a strong preference for written content.

At the InfoQ podcast we always create a transcript of the whole episode. It takes quite some time to turn the spoken content into written content, but it's amazing how many people come to me to tell me that they only read the podcast, but never listen to it.

Makes you wonder why one would not immediately write an article rather than spending the effort to create the spoken content.

I tend to use both. Thanks for not only providing content but also making it available to all.

I guess that depending on the situation, people will use different mediums.

If I'm at the computer, I prefer to read and/or scroll an article. If I'm on the move, listening would definitely be better.
