This. Nearly EVERYONE can read faster than they can view or listen. And with reading, you can skim to find the bit you're actually looking for.

For conveying information*, written text beats every other method hands down. Has done since literacy was invented a few millennia ago. Still does. Always will.

*Communication can be about conveying mood, emotion etc. Information isn't always the primary aim. But when information is the aim, just use text goddammit.
