As someone who consumes a significant amount of visual contenet audibly, the visual half is really far less significant in the grand scheme of things than people are making out to be.

The Wire loses some things without the visuals but it's still a phenomenal audio experience to me.

Yes, for me, and meat seems at least somewhat similarly inclined. What I'm seeing in here is an awful lot of incredulity at the very notion as opposed to a far more reasonable "not for me" stance.

Not a single one of the half baked analogies in here are anywhere close to the mark and the intended storytelling method matters not one iota because the consumer will ultimately determine how he or she enjoys a product.
