The media industry is witnessing a surge in audio content consumption, primarily due to the growing popularity of podcasts and audiobooks.
There is a consistent growth in podcast listenership and awareness, with 64% of US population having listened to a podcast at least once, and 79% familiar with podcasting.
Audio serves as a platform conducive to multitasking, allowing listeners to tune in during household chores or commuting. Audio listeners often display higher education and income levels, offering potential for brand engagement and loyalty.
Despite the surge in audio content, reading news on smartphones ranks 9th in top activities, suggesting a potential market for integrating text-to-speech solutions in online media platforms.
