A new survey of 1,000 respondents conducted by Ipsos for Rolling Stone and the Associated Press confirms what we’ve been saying for some time now. Half of the music fans in the 18-34 age group say that music isn’t as good as it used to be. Rewind almost a year ago to Jacobs Media’s Technology Web Poll where we asked a similar question. In that survey, an alarming percentage of radio fans echoed this sentiment.
The good news? FM radio is the main conduit through which music fans are exposed to the new stuff. Hang in there.
