Interesting thought on the textual shapes on the page. I guess the way to look at reading vs read to is that they're related but non-identical expressions of the work. Spoken aloud you can do things with tone and pacing, but not shape on the page so much, whereas the written word lets you do shape, but not necessarily tone etc.
