Mobile phones have become a staple of daily life, so much so that most consumers can hardly imagine going through the day without one by their side, says eMarketer.
eMarketer predicts mobile content revenues will rise from less than $1.15 billion in 2009 to more than $3.53 billion in 2014, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 20% over the period.
The fastest growth will come from mobile music, the percentage of mobile listerners and moble phone users more than doubling by 2014.
The mobile video audience will increase threefold between 2009 and 2014, with the increase in mobile broadband and the emergence of viewing options outside the carrier networks. That will help boost revenue growth to a CAGR of more than 25% from 2009 to 2014, says eMarketer.
