Radio ownership is on the decline in the US: Infinite Dial 2020

Only two-thirds of Americans have at least one radio in their home

New information from the Infinite Dial 2020 from Edison Research and Triton Digital shows that 68% of all Americans say they have at least one radio in their home.

The average home now has 1.5 radios, down from double that number in 2008, while in that same year only 4% of Americans reported having no radio in their home, as compared to 32% today.

The trend over the last 12 years shows a consistent decline in AM/FM hardware while the growth of smart speaker ownership has continued.

The Infinite Dial 2020 will examine the extent to which smart speakers have replace the radio when it is released in full on March 19th.
