Mobile Content Market Set to Triple to More Than 7.6 Billion Euros Within a Year
"Consumer demand for mobile downloads is set to triple in the next 12 months, creating a EUR7.6 billion global market for mobile content by this time next year, according to international research announced today by LogicaCMG at its Content Management event in London. One fifth of mobile phone owners worldwide have already experienced downloading content to their handsets, a percentage expected to rise to 60 per cent in the next 12 months. The survey - covering Europe, Asia Pacific, North and South America - also revealed that average monthly download spend per subscriber is currently EUR6.32, with more than 40 per cent of respondents expressing an expectation for it to rise next year."
This always amazes me. Cingular, for example, wants $1.99 for a ring tone. Why are people clamoring to pay prices like that for ring tones?? My phone is on vibrate 99% of the time and judging from most of the ring tones I am forced to hear during the day others should follow my lead.
