A recent Parks Research study found that, of U.S. broadband households, 18 percent plan to buy earbuds over the next 12 months, 16 percent plan to buy headphones, and 15 percent plan to buy wireless speakers. "The smartphone has evolved into the primary interface for the connected home," says Parks Research, and it is driving interest in the wireless and "connected audio" categories. The company's 360 View: Mobility and App Economy report states that more than one third of U.S. broadband households use their smartphones to stream music to a speaker or stereo system. Not surprisingly, this practice is most popular amongst consumers ages 25 through 34.
