New findings show 66% of US broadband households use a streaming audio service

“Consumers have shown plenty of interest in streaming audio and music services, but most consumers have opted for free accounts. Music service providers have built a model around converting free users into paying customers, but this strategy has not paid off so far,” said Parks Associates’ research analyst Glenn Hower (pictured).

“Streaming music providers will have to get creative with revenue streams if they hope to build sustainable businesses, whether through partnerships with broadband and mobile carriers or through premium service offerings streaming high-quality lossless audio.”
