One of the cornerstone sessions at WORLDWIDE RADIO SUMMIT 2016, APRIL 13th, 14th, 15th at the HOTEL ROOSEVELT in HOLLYWOOD is TECHSURVEY12 presented by JACOBS MEDIA President, FRED JACOBS, at noon on APRIL 14th.
JACOBS told ALL ACCESS, "TECHSURVEY12 came out of the field this morning – and I can tell you, this year's survey is massive. Our totals look great – very similar to what we were able to amass last year – 200+ stations and we hit the 40,000 completed interviews mark for the second straight survey.
"We've been watching the results pouring in, and can already see some very cool trends. First, smartphone ownership is still growing, solidifying the larger truth that mobile is the biggest social and tech phenomenon of our lifetimes.
"We're seeing continued growth for video on-demand – NETFLIX, YOUTUBE, and HULU look big, while connected TVs continue to proliferate. And audio on-demand is moving along, too. We've got great discreet podcast info to help programmers better understand the types of on-demand content their audiences demand, broken down by our 13 different formats.
"The car continues to be a focus in TS12. Aside from more 'connected cars' on the road, we're also looking at what impact they have on AM/FM listening. By the way, we also took the national sample's temperature about autonomous cars. You’ll be surprised by the results.
"From smartwatches to video game play to fitness trackers to fantasy sports, there are a host of new questions in TS12 to help programmers and brand managers better understand their audience. We're excited to present the results at WWRS 2016 on APRIL 14th."
