American Media Services Survey Shows Popularity of Internet Radio, Even as Regular Radio Continues Holding its Audience
PRNewswire posts “Internet-only radio is rapidly gaining acceptance as another way to listen to music, according to a national survey that American Media Services released today.
“The latest AMS Radio Index shows that more than a quarter (27 percent) of Americans say they have listened to Internet-only radio on an Internet site. This includes nearly half (47 percent) of young adults 18-24 and about a third (34 percent) of those under the age of 50.”

He discusses multiple aspects of his company’s business model and is becoming the lead spokesperson for the Internet radio industry. On the subject of Internet radio, he says, “I think it will be the pre-eminent form of radio going forward, and I think partly because it's getting off the (personal computer). It's moving into mobile devices, so it's accessible in a lot of places that were once the sole domain of broadcast radio, like cars.”
