Online Radio Reach & Consumption, September 2013 [CHART]

Chart - Online Radio Reach & Consumption

53% of online Americans aged 12 and up listen to online radio, including personalized radio (39%), live streaming (27%) and on-demand music (18%) services, per a new study from the Streaming Audio Task Force (comprised of Pandora, Spotify and TuneIn) conducted by Edison Research. The results indicate that the vast majority of this audience is spending the same (27%) or more (67%) time listening to internet radio than last year.
