SURVEY: Facebook Is Already A Prized Feature For Radio

The ability to share tunes and discuss them with friends is a favorite feature among users of music streaming services, which explains why Spotify has amassed one million users from Facebook since announcing the integration last week.

One reason Facebook’s integration of music services Spotify, Vevo, Rdio and Mog was so heavily anticipated ahead of last week’s formal announcement: The ability to share tunes and discuss them with friends is a treasured feature for Internet radio.

How According to Myxer, people want their music free, they want more social media integration, and they want to be able to chat with friends and discuss their music selections.

Myxer polled 1,188 mobile visitors and found:

  • 36 percent of respondents regularly listen to more than one Internet radio service;
  • 26 percent of those respondents citing two to five services, and
  • 10 percent saying they listen to more than five online music services on a regular basis.
