4. Summary and future perspectives
Summary: Less radio listening in 217 the five big stations are declining while the small station are increasing Norwegians are digital leaders and TV, radio and print have declining audiences. The radio stations meet new competition from disrupting tech. Everybody has access to at least on digital equipment for radio listening in 218. BUT less devices at home, in cars and elsewhere than in 216. The daily reach for the nation stations are as expected declining,. The listening time among the listeners is stabile. The stations keep their loyal audience but have lost some of the sporadic listeners. NRK has lost listener's in 217 while the commercial station keep their marked shares. Fragmentation: The five big are declining while the small station are increasing 3
A future proof strategy In the personalized and digital media landscape the radio industry must have tailored made content and service to meet the demand for different target groups. Radio stations and audio content have to be available on all possible digital devices. With 3 DAB+ station and new digital services the radio industry is prepared for the battle for the car dashboards and in other audio systems. 3 station and digital services such as geo-located traffic information and weather services is definitely more future proof than five FM stations. 31
Norwegian radios are fit for the digital future!
