Australia - Digital Media - Music, MP3 & Podcasting  

Music has been the key driver behind the early developments in digital media, both in mobile and fixed networks. While mobile is the preferred technology for listening to music, the business models are not conducive to helping people become accustomed to using these networks for music delivery. Most will use free or cheap Internet sites to gain access to music. The totally unprepared music industry has suffered greatly from the switch to electronic music, and is only now beginning to recover. MP3, or podcasting, has gone well beyond the music application, and millions of podcasts (some in video format) are downloaded daily. All this is also a fair indication of the future direction of the video entertainment and wireless broadband (mobility) market.
