Online radio audience becomes social

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008 - No Comments »

Americans from pre-teens to adults are logging on to online radio stations, which means that marketers have another niche to investigate when it comes to online campaigns. Whether the stations are privately owned or streaming from local stations, more users means a bigger campaign ROI.

by Kristina Knight

arbitron.gifJust over 33 million users are logging on to radio websites; up from 29 million in 2007. The question is how to attract the users listening online. A study from Arbitron and Edison Media Research indicates that marketers may not need to look any further than social networks. That is because more than 60% of online radio listeners have social networking profiles.

Nearly 33% of those users log on to their social hub daily, with most using either MySpace or LinkedIn.

“We found that Online radio listeners are more than one and half times more likely to have a profile on a social networking site as compared to average Americans and that they tend to be power-users,” said Diane Williams, senior analyst, custom research for Arbitron.

The correlation between online radio listeners and social networks is interested. This could be another way to advertise on a cross-platform basis. Using display ads on a radio station website to drive traffic to a branded micro-site in a social network or even sponsoring programming and pushing traffic in that manner could appeal to these social users.

XM Satellite quarterly loss narrows

Thursday, February 28th, 2008 - No Comments »

Losses are narrower-than-expected loss on Thursday as it added more than 1 million subscribers during the quarter that included the holiday season.

But the results failed to excite investors who have been waiting more than a year for regulators to approve XM’s plan to be acquired by rival Sirius Satellite Radio Inc (SIRI.O: Quote, Profile, Research). The proposed deal was first announced in February 2007.

XM reported a fourth-quarter loss of $238.8 million, or 78 cents a share, compared with a loss of $263.2 million, or 90 cents a share, a year earlier.

The loss includes 25 cents a share in merger and settlement related charges, XM said. Excluding those charges, its loss was 53 cents a share, better than the average analyst expectation of 63 cents a share, according to Reuters Estimates.

U.S. regulators have yet to decide whether to approve the XM-Sirius deal. They include the Federal Communications Commission as well as the Department of Justice, which will decide if combining the two U.S. satellite radio companies would be anti-competitive, as some critics have charged.

Analysts’ opinions about the potential success of the deal have been mixed. Several have recently said they are now more optimistic, while other remain skeptical.

“Since the one-year anniversary of the deal has passed with no word from the DOJ, risk continues to exist that the deal will not happen,” Barrington Research analyst James Goss said in a client note earlier this week.

On a conference call with analysts, XM Chief Executive Nate Davis said the company does “continue to look forward to a positive resolution to this matter soon.”
