According to an Edison Research report, “Radio’s Future II: The 2010 American Youth Study,” media usage among teens and young adults are shifting.
In 2000, 74% of young adults, ages 12-24, listened to terrestrial radio. That percentage has sharply dwindled - as of 2010, only 41% of young adults listen to the radio. As many young people have given up their music and newspaper habits, the internet has replaced much of that activity.
Online usage among teens and young adults increased from 16% to 42%. But looks at what is down: talking on the telephone drops from one hour and 44 minutes, per 24 hour day, down to one our and four; reading magazines from 24 minutes to 11, and newspapers from 17 minutes to 8.
According to the report: “The same trend is observable in total time spent with various media. In 2000, teens and young adults were spending close to 2 hours and 45 minutes listening to the radio each day. By 2010 it had fallen to an hour and a half." In addition reading magazines drops by more than half while time spent online goes from an hour a day to almost 3.
But online radio is a bright spot, “Pandora is the clear front runner among online radio services, according to online listeners surveyed by Vision Critical in March. Pandora was cited as the favorite by 27%, and 42% had listened in the past year. No other service garnered more than a single-digit response.”

I've been browsing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It's pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.

It really is the internet generation. Everyone or anyone who wants to be in the loop needs to be internet savvy. Radio, print, TV, etc. can now be found over the internet. It will surely reduce usage of other devices but hopefully it doesn't kill them.

I should agree to the survey. This is the result of more people getting aware about online features and online activities. The decrease in statistics seems to be demanding and alarming for those who are involved in media publishing like newspaper and other raw media. However, I would like to congratulate Pandora for their long-time and rewarding endeavor for becoming front runner among online radio services. Kudos!
