I do know about sadie's story, but my best friend IRL did the audiophile achievement without me, so I never got to that.
This is a Bungie game with a fairly complex storytelling structure, and inspired by Dante's Inferno.
The Rookie's story in Reach provides a barebones plot structure and some atmosphere. Sadie's story provides sideplot to explain what's actually happening and to flesh out what New Mombasa once was, to juxtapose with what is seen in game. And the additional consideration of Inferno helps to thematically tie everything together.
If the achievement was the only value you saw in collecting the Sadie's Story logs, it's not surprising that you didn't get much out of the game.

Granted, I'll acknowledge that Bungie made the storytelling in ODST obnoxiously innaccessable in some ways.
