• 58% of ad agencies are more
interested in streaming radio
than a year ago
• 86% ad agencies same – or
lower – levels of interest in
traditional radio

• Digital radio ad spend up 9%
• Total radio ad spend flat
What Will Radio Be 5 Years From Now?
www.midiaconsulting.com – Mark Mulligan - September 2013
• Radio, and radio-like programming, will become a central
tenet of on-demand music services (paid and free)
• More radio content will be consumed in a non-linear
fashion
• Radio will become a key tool for addressing the tyranny of
choice
• More media consumption time will shift to multi-media
devices (tablets, smartphones, laptops) leaving DAB
devices vulnerable to obsolescence
• Interactive car dashboards will be a threat, but also a
great opportunity (lean back experiences are safer in the
car)
• The importance of DJs and spoken word content will still
be key, but contexts will have changed
Conclusions
www.midiaconsulting.com – Mark Mulligan - September 2013
• Media consumption is rapidly shifting online and onto
mobile devices
• DAB is a great digital ‘lock-in’ for the home
• New emerging digital entertainment services are blurring
consumers’ perceptions of what constitutes radio
• Tablets and smartphones help break down the distinctions
between different media formats
• Radio has a big future ahead of it, but that doesn’t
necessarily mean a big future for broadcasters
• However the big change will be generational rather than
immediate
