TargetSpot has added Xbox Music to the list of affiliates for its digital audio advertising network, the company just announced. The partnership gives TargetSpot advertisers access to streaming audio inventory delivered via Microsoft Xbox consoles as well as Windows 8 and Windows RT tablet computers and PCs, and Windows Phone 8 mobile devices.
According to the Digital Audio Benchmark and Trend Study conducted by Parks Associates, over one-third of people who listen to Internet radio also tune in via a connected TV device, including Xbox console setups. Some 42% of U.S. households with broadband access listen to Internet radio, and 22% of these have a household income over $100,000.
Overall, the size of the U.S. Internet radio audience is expected to increase from 147.3 million in 2013 to 176.5 million in 2016, according to separate data from eMarketer, representing an increase from 46.1% to 53.7% of the total U.S. population.
