Pod-meta! *ponders* There have only been a few podfics that have really horrified me, but at least one of them I'd read before and it didn't bother me at all -- but hearing the action in my head, I couldn't delete it off my iPod fast enough (with all apologies to the reader, it was a very good reading, just nightmare fuel).

There are stories that I'd like podfic of but that I wouldn't read myself, and not just because I'm lazy... more like I'm not that fond of the sound of my own voice and having to listen to a fic in my voice would make it harder to engage with the story? But I do think that some readers do have genres that they are really good fits in -- and that sometimes they make use of this reader expectation and record things outside their genre that just blow me away: "But she always reads fluffy romance so sweetly, and now I'm crying because I wasn't braced for ~that to happen!" (I usually enjoy having my heart broken, so I7d mean this in a "Well played, podficcer!" way)
